Our Goals

Growth in Grace

RUF aims to help students understand and use the means of grace which God has provided for Christian growth. This includes studying the Bible, developing a prayer life, understanding worship, and depending on the Holy Spirit in order to change and become more like Jesus.

Evangelism and Missions

RUF must proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ to the university community with the hope of reaching the world. We take seriously Jesus’ command to go and make disciples. So we are witnessing to the truth about God and man in the world of academic, relativistic thought, and we are depending upon the Holy Spirit to draw students to trust in Jesus as Redeemer and serve him as King.

Fellowship and Service

Because Christians are united to Christ, they are also united to one another. As Christians learn to participate by using their gifts and strengths, the body of Christ is built up. It also means reaching out as a loving community to the university community–demonstrating what it means to be a Christian.

Biblical World and Life View

Christianity is a way of seeing all of life. We believe that God is at work in the world, upholding his creation and ruling over all his creatures. His revealed truth is the integrating principle for all knowledge. This provides the Christian with a frame of reference for thinking and lifestyle.
