Who We are

This is what we're about: 

Helping students know Jesus, and working out what that means for their lives.
our mission statement
Campus Ministry @ GVSU is a community of Christ followers called to: Engage college students with the life-changing love of God, disciple leaders who make disciples, and be a bridge to Jesus Christ and His church.
CM@GVSU was started in 1965- back when Grand Valley was a college, not a university! We were established as a ministry partnership between the Reformed Church in America (RCA) and the Christian Reformed Church in North America (CRC). What started as one seminary student leading Bible studies for GVSU students has transformed into a fruitful ministry. We are grateful to God for his faithful and unfailing love for this campus.
our history
We Welcome everyone
We gladly welcome all students - no matter your religious background, denominational affiliation, questions about God or faith, political stances, etc. All are welcome here! Each year, we watch transformation happen as students find new life in Jesus and begin positively impacting GVSU and the world. 

stories

If you attend the Well on a Sunday night, you'll more than likely hear the phrase, "here are Campus Ministry, we LOVE telling stories of God's faithfulness, and tonight, our friend [fill in the blank!] is going to share their story with us!" He is doing good work in so many students at Grand Valley. Check out a couple of those stories below, and we would HIGHLY encourage you to go watch more stories on our YouTube playlist! You will be so encourged.
