When the campus shut down at Lousiana State University, Rachel Butz had a decision to make: "Would her ministry to her sorority sisters continue?" Rachel serves as the chaplain of ADPi and as a chapter ministry leader with InterVarsity. She decided to take her ministry online, not knowing what would happen. The results have been encouraging.

Greek InterVarsity has a number of resources to equip fraternity and sorority students to effectively start and lead a chapter ministry. In this episode, Steve and Rachel talk about the Alpha Series of Bible Studies (https://store.intervarsity.org/alpha-series-leader-kit/). Additionally, Greek InterVarsity produces the "Greek & Christian Podcast" to host real, honest conversations about how to approach Greek Life from a Christian perspective (available on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, and major podcasting platforms).
Rachel also mentioned in the episode that she's a student at a relatively new ministry at LSU. The Louisiana Region is doing some of the most innovative planting ministry in the United States.

We've created a website (updated daily) full of resources to help you with Ministering Online Through COVID-19: intervarsity.org/online.
