“We shall have gone deeper than the deeps of heaven and grown older than the oldest angels before we feel, even in its first faint vibrations, the everlasting violence of that double passion with which God hates and loves the world”
– G.K. Chesterton

We have been blessed like our ancestors of old to hear God’s voice and respond to his world mission command. God is still directing the course of history, even while using fallible men like ourselves. I think the point you made about God’s mission is important- that no one ministry can supersede God’s world mission view with its own unique purpose. As we meet with students and pray for them to grow as disciples, our hopes and expectations must be tempered by the fact that God may be calling them in a different way apart from campus mission. Ultimately, every disciple must receive the call of mission very personally from the Mission-maker Himself.
