For over 80 years, InterVarsity has been ministering to the country’s future leaders.
The men and women that are now undergraduate and graduate students on college campuses across the U.S.
66% of college Christians stop attending church.
They need real models of biblical faith.
57% report symptoms of depression or anxiety.
They need real examples of Christ-centered hope.
43% are "nones" who identify with no religion.
They need real experiences of Christian love.
Today's college students are our future leaders, but they are a generation in crisis*
- They are overwhelmed and exhausted by their use of social media and are more isolated than ever.
- They feel betrayed by pastors, politicians, and other people in authority.
- They are suspicious of the Church, which they associate with sexism, racism, and injustice.
They are lost without Jesus, but God relentlessly pursues them through InterVarsity communities
Evangelism
Being invited to love God –learning who to believe, even when they are surrounded by a cacophony of "experts".
Bible Study
Being invited to love God's word –where they can access eternal wisdom, not just infinite information.
Christian Community
Being invited to love God's people of every ethnicity and culture –where they are shown how God's love makes people in all their backgrounds and experiences feel known.
Leadership
Being invited to love God's purposes in the world –not just a cause or career, but a true calling with which they can grow as leaders and transform the world
Join us in praying that the Good News of Jesus will reach every corner of every campus!
We can only do that through the faithful giving of ministry partners, so please consider making a gift today.
