One of the ways we pursue this vision is by developing missional small groups across the campus. These groups focus on three main things: 

  1. Community. Acts 2:46 "Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts". It is essential that Christians grow in fellowship with each other. Strong Christian friendships help fight against temptations on campus. We build community by having...
    • game nights, BBQ/cook outs, one-on-one lunches, poetry jam sessions, traveling to local and national conferences 
  2. Communion. Acts 2:42 "They devoted themselves to the apostles teaching..." Another essential element that helps Christians on our mission is through maintaining communication with God. We understand the importance of individually growing spiritually. Therefore we focus on:
    • inductive bible studies
    • weekly prayer meetings
  3. Commission. Matthew 28:19-20 "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." We acknowledge that there will be thousands of students who will never set foot in a bible study or even a church during their college years. Therefore, it is important that as a Christian group, we live out the great commission. 
    • Prayer Walks
    • Prayer boxes in the dorms
    • Evangelistic interactive surveys
