Our College Campus Ministry: A Place to Belong, Grow, and Serve
"As a dedicated college campus ministry, CSF exists to be a Christ-centered home away from home, where students find community and lasting faith through college and beyond.
Our Core Values
Christ-Centered
Jesus is at the center of who we are and everything we do.
Our Vision
To make disciples who make disciples, see students grow in their faith, live in community, and carry their faith beyond college.
Belong
We create a place where students are known, valued, and genuinely connected.
Grow
We help students develop a strong foundation in God's Word, grow in their relationship with Jesus, and become disciples who make disciples.
Serve
We encourage students to use their gifts to serve God and others.
Go
We prepare students to carry their faith beyond NEO and wherever God leads them.
