Ministry Partnership:
We have the opportunity to invite others to partner with us in the mission that God has called us to. Partnership makes our ministry possible. At Cru, no central funding exists for paying ministry expenses. Like many nonprofits, our ministry depends on the support (financially and prayerfully) of like minded individuals, churches and other faith based organizations. Through this strategy, we have the privilege of developing our own Ministry Partnership Team. We truly value this relational piece of our ministry!
We are inviting you to partner with us. Would you consider giving $100 per month (or another amount) towards reaching others with the Good News of Jesus? One time donations or monthly donations of ANY AMOUNT are also appreciated! All gifts are tax-deductible. Together we can reach the World!
Our Ministry Focus:
We are a family that has truly been transformed by the incredible love and grace of God. We currently serve as missionaries for Cru City in Raleigh, North Carolina. It is our desire that all people would know Jesus and make Him known. We long to glorify God, make disciples and be on mission for the Gospel.
We are part of a team of missionaries that shares a passion to connect people to Jesus and to see the flourishing of the city. This is an amazing opportunity for us and we feel it is a wonderful fit for our family. We are planting roots in Raleigh and want to invest in the community in a number of different ways for years to come. Here is the vision of what we hope to see God accomplish in and through us.
1) Reaching college students and young professionals: Raleigh is a strategic mission field that allows us to live out our passion to engage with college students and young professionals. There are 14 universities in Raleigh representing over 120,000 students. In addition to this, a boom in industries like technology, medicine and education are drawing young professionals to the area. This is creating a great opportunity to share the love of Jesus to future leaders. We believe that if we reach this generation with the gospel, it can change the world.
2) Partnering with churches: Statistics tell us that 155 million Americans do not believe in God, the Bible or attend church. In addition to this, 2.5 million are leaving church communities every year. We will be partnering with local churches to provide staff, resources, equipping and training. We want to see Cru’s DNA of discipleship and evangelism revitalize the local church. Our heart is to see churches grow and new churches planted.
3) City Renewal: The gospel changes people’s lives individually. At the same time, the gospel has the power to transform entire cities. In light of this, it is important that we share our faith in both word and deed. Our family will be part of a ministry team that will collectively work and partner to solve systemic problems in Raleigh and to lift city burdens like homelessness, human trafficking and fatherlessness.
