Service is an integral part of the daily life and mission of Concordia University Ann Arbor. Not only is service a core value, as we strive to service others in caring, helpful, and knowledgeable ways, but our mission is not fulfilled until our students go out into the Church and the world as servants of Christ.

CUAA alumni assume significant servant leadership responsibilities in the Church and communities across the nation and the world because of the experiences they have as students, developing in global-mindfulness to transform lives, influence communities, and value their neighbors near and far.

Some of the ways Concordia practices service is through a mission of the month, dedicating support to a project or organization in the area, sending students on mission trips, and through the various service initiatives of student clubs, organizations, teams, or departments.

By creating and cultivating opportunities for the campus community to regularly serve our brothers and sisters in Christ, we demonstrate the love of Christ who came to earth not to be served but to serve.

When you get involved at Concordia, you open yourself up to all kinds of possibilities: connections with fellow Concordians who share your same interests, opportunities to practice and apply what you’ve learned in the classroom, and the chance to serve others in ways that match the unique skill sets you’ve been given. And you can do all of this while having fun and making long-lasting memories.

Most of the clubs at Concordia have been chartered by the Student Government Association, which means they receive funding and are overseen by a student executive board. SGA gets its funding from the Student Government Program Fee that full-time students pay. In addition to overseeing clubs, SGA works with faculty, campus ministry, and the university’s administration to represent students in all aspects of life at CUAA and make sure the student voice is heard.
