Olivet Leaders Convene, Collaborate at USCWM & WCIU

Meeting on campus at the U.S. Center for World Mission (USCWM) shared by William Carey International University (WCIU) in Pasadena, Calif., top leaders from Olivet University convened last week to discuss plans and cast vision.

Dr. Ralph D. Winter, Honorary Chairman of Olivet University, welcomed Olivet's Chancellor Dr. David J. Jang to his home campus for a gathering with their staff teams. Participants included Greg Parsons, USCWM General Manager; Beth Snodderly, WCIU Vice President for Academic Affairs; and Olivet University's Chief Operating Officer Walker Tzeng, and Director of Academic Affairs Tracy McNeal.

The meeting explored ways to build the partnership between Olivet University, USCWM and their respective ministry families. University leaders agreed to collaborate together to develop and share educational resources.

One outcome of the talks is a joint repository of mission resources in hardcopy and digital formats and multiple languages, under the name The Ralph D. Winter Library. The project is named for Dr. Winter in honor of his achievements and lifelong service in world mission.

Information about the library will be made available at ralphdwinterlibrary.org.
