    Returning to campus after an InterVarsity Global Project or Urban Project is often a more difficult journey than actually leaving a comfortable life for six weeks. It’s the coming back that is the true test of who you are and who you’ve become.

    With three times as many small group leaders as last year, we’re excited to see how God will use our small groups to reach more of our campus.

    John Cheng decided to start the school year with open-air evangelism instead of the traditional barbecue meet-and-greet, to encourage a culture of invitation at UC-Davis.

    Joe didn’t understand how his InterVarsity friends could be so trusting of God, yet all the while he was intrigued by how they wanted to follow Jesus.

    InterVarsity staff, students, and alumni, are saddened to hear of the passing of John R. W. Stott, Rector Emeritus of All Souls Church in London and Urbana conference expositor from 1964 to 1979.

    The International Fellowship of Evangelical Students is holding its quadrennial World Assembly at a university in Krakow, Poland, and InterVarsity staff are there.
