Opportunity: 

  •  Cru has always gone to where people are. Today most people of the world are online with their mobile phones and computers. Creating online models of focused evangelism and discipleship is urgently needed globally, especially in the most unreached countries. Through online mentoring, Joanne is engaging with people who do not know Christ. Through her online mentoring, she has ongoing conversations with a worldwide audience. She also gives valuable feedback that helps the digital ministry of Cru continue to shape the articles most suited to expressed needs of online audiences. 
  • From immediate “felt” needs to spiritual conversations, Joanne comes alongside women to listen and ask questions. Her goal as an online mentor is to guide people in taking their next best step of faith in knowing God personally.
  • The Barna Group recently made a statement and asked a question: “The majority of Americans have signaled that they are willing to consider exploring spirituality. They are open to more that truly satisfies. Are Christian leaders ready?” Cru has a plan to engage the curious across multiple communities that define today’s Cities. Hugh’s part in Cru City is to engage the curious, equip the follower and help others discover their place in God’s redemptive story. 

Our Family and Ministry Background: 

  • Each of us has served with Cru for 50 years. Our family is blessed with three married sons and 10 grandchildren. Our responsibilities have varied through the years. But most of our past ministry could be summarized as: 
    1. Working with students in Atlanta, GA, and in Manila, Philippines.
    2. Building indigenous leadership for Cru across Asia by training and equipping national leaders. 
    3. Working with teachers, medical doctors, and national staff of various countries to prepare students to build character through classroom sessions that introduce them to Jesus. 
    4. Equipping and coaching staff to raise up local indigenous financial support through networks of partners within their own countries. 
    5. Currently, we work with Digital Products and Services, and with Cru City focused on the different communities within major US cities. 

Your Involvement: 

Would you prayerfully consider being part of our financial and prayer support team? Together we can impact the lives of many who are ready and waiting to hear the Gospel. Those who come to know Jesus personally will have the opportunity to be grounded in their faith and trained to become Christian leaders of the next generation. What greater investment can we make than this one that yields eternal rewards?
