CBFNC CAMPUS MINISTRY NEWS
CBFNC is delighted to announce the calling of Dr. Charity Roberson as the Campus Minister at East Carolina University. She has also been called to serve as pastor of Mosaic Church, Clayton. 
Charity comes to this role with a deep passion for young adults and for bi-vocational ministry. She served nine years as the Raleigh Area Baptist Campus Minister with the Baptist State Convention of NC and most recently has served with the Baptist General Association of Virginia as a Field Strategist and Ministry Placement Coach. 
Charity received her undergraduate degree from UNCG and her Masters of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry from Campbell Divinity School. 
CBFNC Executive Coordinator, Larry Hovis, noted, “Charity brings a wealth of ministry experience back to North Carolina and to our Fellowship. She will not only effectively serve as pastor of Mosaic and the collegiate ministry at ECU, but will be a catalytic influence for CBFNC overall.”
“Charity has been a cherished colleague for many years,” stated Wanda Kidd, CBFNC Collegiate Engagement Coordinator. “I am excited to work with her in this new capacity. I look forward to her leadership with students at ECU and throughout CBFNC.”
Roberson will move to NC in early 2019 to begin her new ministry roles.
