Abstract
In this paper, I detail the strategic planning process undertaken by Chi Alpha Christian Fellowship at the University of Mississippi. I do this by first presenting information about strategic planning and about Chi Alpha as an organization. Then, I present a narrative detailing how we completed the planning process. After that, I present the results that make up the strategic plan itself. I end with an evaluation of the overall effort. Our planning process created strategies to address five strategic issues: reaching international students, lacking a unified discipleship structure, lacking a property, developing a “missions mindset” instead of a “leadership mindset,” and reaching more minority students. We also developed specific, measurable objectives for each of these strategic issues. Not only did we learn what does and does not work for strategic planning, but we showed that it is possible and useful to strategically plan as a campus ministry.
