| Who Are We? |
InterVarsity Christian Fellowship is an interdenominational, evangelical student-led ministry serving students, faculty, and staff at the University since 1945. We are a group of students who are committed to learning about what it means to be Christians. We come to know God better by living out the teachings of the Bible. We invite people of all denominations and backgrounds to join us in fellowship and service.
- Interdenominational
For people of any or no church background. We encourage attendance at the church of your choice on Sundays.
- Evangelical
Holding forth the truths of Biblical Christianity to build up those who are already Christians and to call those who are not to a personal commitment to Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
- Student Led
Yearly, students select among their peers those who will lead them. Full-time IVCF staff advise, coach, and train all students.
These are our commitments and the values that shape our movement, but it doesn't just happen. There are discipleships, activities, and events planned to help each of us grow personally and belong to the fellowship. Membership is open to all students, faculty, and staff who are interested in our purpose and desire to take part in our programs. Our purposes are:
- To seek by personal and group testimony to lead students to a saving faith in Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior
- To encourage spiritual growth of Christian students by prayer, Bible study, and Christian fellowship
- To present the call to Christian service, both at home and abroad, encouraging students to begin involvement now
- To help the Christian student integrate his faith with his academic environment, beginning to form a God-centered world view and Christian lifestyle
