Stories from Campus

Most people worry that college is where students lose their faith. Sadly, many do. But, we’ve also found that college is an ideal place to help students grow their faith and introduce them to Jesus. Every day, through your prayers, volunteer time, and generosity, you’re helping InterVarsity staff and student leaders reach students who might feel lonely or lost. We help show them what it looks like to follow Jesus as an adult and to make their faith their own during the most formative years of their lives. For some, like Matthew, these interactions happen at just the right time. 

Through my interactions with new believers, I rediscovered a part of my faith I had lost.

Going to church on Sundays was no longer enough for Cade. He wanted to see the hope of Jesus proclaimed in the streets for all people to hear.

Last school year at the University of Colorado Boulder, Derek, Abigail, and Jake started attending an InterVarsity small group on campus. There, they found belonging, opportunities to grow their faith, and a lifelong love of prayer ministry. They also discovered a God who could miraculously heal them not only of their physical ailments, but also of their mental, emotional, and spiritual brokenness.
