WHY ARE WE HERE?
Whether you know Jesus, or are just intrigued and want to explore who He is, Cru is a place to come, explore, and grow.
WHAT DO WE VALUE?
We all long to be known and loved. We strive to be a community where you can come and be both.
WHAT DO WE BELIEVE?
We believe that Jesus rose from the dead. That changes everything. Read more about what we believe here: Cru.org
If you are around Cru for even just a little while, you may hear us say the word “gospel”. What is the gospel? The gospel means good news: the good news that, though our sin separates us from God, Jesus has provided a way back to God in a reconciled relationship. The gospel means we have access to God relationally! Watch Mellisa Share her story below:

Thursday Night with Cru
We gather as students from all across campus each Thursday to worship, be taught from the Bible, connect with each other and connect with God. It is also a great place to make connections and meet new friends!
