VISION:
Our vision is to reach diverse college age people with the Gospel so that they become radically transformed, glocally minded, life-long followers of Jesus Christ.
MISSION:
To connect multi-ethnic and diverse college-age people relationally to Jesus Christ and to one another in authentic community and to build them in love through the gospel so that they can serve in local and global (glocal) communities.
VALUES:
reach
We believe that every human being is not an accident and that we have a purpose and an eternal destiny. Though we may use our gifts, talents, education, and experiences to impact this world in different ways, God created us to personally know Him through a relationship with Jesus Christ. Thus,we will do what is within the boundary of Gods Word to reach this generation for Christ through creative arts, excellent music, drama, film, dance, and the spoken word.
diverse college-age people
We recognize that college-age people are journeying through some of the most formative years in their lives especially in the areas of mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual development. Regardless of ones ethnicity, culture, spiritual background, whether student or working professional, we welcome, embrace, and seek to connect all who come from a diverse spectrum to authentic, Christ-centered community.
radically transformed
Our conviction is that the Gospel or good news of Jesus Christ provides all the essentials for a healthy, vibrant relationship with God and others. Through Christs death, we are set free from sins guilt and judgment. Through Christs resurrection, we receive new life, purpose, significance, and worth. This is not only a great deal ... it is a great exchange thats radical and FREE!
glocally minded
Although we live in a world with huge needs globally and locally, it is so easy to become self-absorbed and self-obsessed with our own needs. We believe that college age people desire to make a difference in their local and global communities. Thus, we endeavor to think, pray, and act locally and globally. Our desire is to develop people who have a mindset and lifestyle to give of themselves and their resources to impact this world with the love and hope of Christ.
life-long followers
Many in the college years get pumped up about a relationship with God, but studies indicate that 4 out of 5 drop out of church after graduation. We want college-age people to become passionate, devoted followers of Jesus who will journey with God for a lifetime. This means creating authentic community that is connected to a local church and cultivating personal disciplines of worship and service that will stand the struggles and successes of life.
