History
The history of United
Council of Christian Fraternities and Sororities (UCCFS) begins with
the dream of Visionary Founder Shirley K. Russell of Alpha Nu Omega
Christian Fraternity and Sorority, Inc. She had the dream of bringing
together Christian fraternities and sororities in a united body to meet
the challenges that their unique organizations face. She envisioned
a Council that would allow Christian fraternal organizations an environment
for cooperative ministry.
In August 2006,
the leadership of three such organizations came together—Alpha
Nu Omega, Inc., Delta Psi Epsilon Christian Sorority, Inc. and Men of
God Christian Fraternity, Inc. National Presidents Curtis M. Brown,
Vila-Sheree Watson, Bryan K. Miller and Visionary Russell met during
the national convention of Alpha Nu Omega in Virginia Beach, Virginia
to form an alliance dedicated to bring together Christian fraternities
and sororities for a greater ministry purpose.
The Council
has a five-fold purpose to UNITE.
U-Unity,
Bring together Christian fraternities and sororities in a unified body
for a greater impact in the communities we serve across the country.
N-Navigation, Aid member organizations in the navigation
of college and university student/greek life systems.
I-Inspection,
Serve in an advisory capacity to Christian fraternities and sororities.
We will work with Christian fraternities and sororities throughout the
country to provide guidance,oversight, legitimacy, and credibility.
T-Training
and Development, Provide leadership training and development
to the officers of each member institution in areas including organizational
structure and conduct.
E-Eminent
Domain, Combine the resources of member organizations (which
we recognize are God's resources) in order to foster cooperative ministry
and become more effective and efficient ambassadors for the kingdom
of God.
Mission
The United Council
of Christian Fraternities and Sororities shall be an impactful leader
in the kingdom of God through being on one accord, forming a cooperative
ministry and providing leadership training.
The UCCFS shall
bring together Christian fraternities and sororities working to have
a greater impact on the member organizations’ campuses and communities.
The council will
give legitimacy to each member organization among peers as the organizations
navigate through ministerial and university systems.
Finally, the council
will provide leadership training and counsel to the organization officers
in an attempt to train effective and efficient leaders in the kingdom
of God.
