Campus Ministries and Student Support

As a faith-based university and organization, our Campus Ministries program is vital to campus life. They organize engaging and fun student activities, like weekly bowling nights and regular get-togethers. Get involved on campus and make new friends with our Campus Ministries team – and many of our weekly and annual events, including the ones listed below.

And remember, if you have any questions about our student events, stop by Campus Ministries, located at The Office of Mission at the Andersen House. You may run into other students enjoying the back porch and amazing view of the lake – or taking advantage of quiet time in our study room. Or you can pray with a Campus Chaplain, who are also located in the Anderson House.
