What if the next 4 years could impact the next 40+ years? 

We are inviting you to partner with us—prayerfully and financially—as we follow God’s call to reach students across Orange County. 

We are working in Orange County to Win, Build, and Send Christ-centered, multiplying disciples who launch spiritual movements and help others do the same. Orange County is home to more than 525,000 high school and college-aged students across approximately 120 high schools and 20 colleges and universities. With so many students in need of the hope of the gospel, we see an incredible opportunity to invest in their lives and see the gospel transform students, campuses, and communities throughout Orange County.

This is a strategic opportunity to see lives changed for Jesus Christ. Together with our team, we are trusting God to work through these strategic partnerships to win students to Christ, build them up in their faith, and send them out into the world as lifelong laborers for Him. Our desire is to see the hearts and minds of students won for Jesus so that His Kingdom would flourish across these campuses and beyond.

This is no small task, and we are grateful to play a part in what God is doing. These needs remind us of Jesus’ words in Matthew 9:37: “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.” Will you join us in this work of the harvest?

Having been involved in college ministry in various contexts for the past several years, we have seen firsthand how transformative a thriving relationship with Jesus can be. We also understand how challenging it can be to pursue that relationship in the unique and often demanding environment of a college campus. Our heart is to introduce students to Jesus and walk alongside them in their faith journey, just as others have faithfully done for us. 

We long to see students come to know Jesus for the first time, grow deeply in their walk with Him, and be equipped to share Him with the world. We want to be part of seeing the gospel spread throughout Orange County and beyond—to campuses, cities, and nations. We believe the Lord has called us to this work here in Orange County, serving high school and college students as we work to develop partnerships that strategically reach students here. ​

What makes our roles unique? We believe the most effective way to reach these students is by bringing together the people and organizations who are already committed to their communities. Through Strategic Partnerships, we work to activate, align, and mobilize mission-minded churches, ministries, and Christian colleges to reach Orange County students with the gospel. By working together, we can equip more people, expand our reach, and multiply gospel impact across the county and beyond.

Will you partner with us in this work for the Kingdom of God?
