Fall Retreat was awesome!  We had about 150 students and staff from all over the state gather to hang out and hear from Roger Hershey.  Don’t forget, you can still listen to any of the talks Hersh gave on his website!  We’ll see you next at IndyCC!

Fall Retreat is Coming!

The theme this year is Deeper Still and we will be at Spring Hill Camp.  Here’s a map.

The cost is $65 and $45 for Freshmen and first time folks.

Online Registration is here!

Indiana Cru believes that the ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ will simply not happen at universities all over Indiana this Fall without a work of God.  Because of this we will be praying continuously for three days from Friday August 21 at 8 am until Monday August 24 at 8 am.  Please join with us as we ask God to continue to build His Kingdom here and continue to use it to impact the world.

If you want to pray with us, click the link below.  For every half hour time slot that you can join us in prayer please put in your name and city/school you live near.

Sign me up!

If you’re like me, you probably need a little more direction than that to spend a half hour or more in prayer.  So here’s some things:

• Students would have soft hearts this year, be teachable and respond to the Gospel
• For favor with the administrations and open doors on campuses across the state
• People of peace to be found on every campus statewide
• Knowledge for local churches, volunteers and staff about how to engage students
• The resources needed to put the Gospel within arm’s reach of every student in the state of Indiana
• Radical, Saul to Paul conversions across Indiana

But those are still general ideas.  If you’re a student or excited about students knowing Jesus, click on the title above and leave a comment to let everyone know the specific needs and requests that you are trusting God for in your part of the state.

Still wondering what to do over spring break?  Consider joining Indiana Cru for an unforgettable week.  Big Break is a one-week mission experience that gathers students from colleges and universities from all over the country in Panama City Beach, Florida. Spend the week growing in your walk with God, exploring biblical truths and learning how to talk to your friends about your faith.  Plus, you’ll have tons of free time to relax on the beach with friends and hang out in some pretty amazing condos!

The deadline to sign up for Big Break is February 28!  If you are interested in hearing more about Big Break or have specific questions, please join us for a brief meeting this Thursday, February 19th at 12:30 in the C-Club.

Check out the website at big-break.com and get yourself registered!  You will not regret it.

Any questions, contact Kim Riley at Kim.Riley@uscm.org

See you there!!

The Well is back this Friday night!  Join us as we open God’s Word to talk about New Year’s resolutions and God’s resolution for us.  This will be a great talk for a new year.  Invite your friends to come and join us in the basement of Common Ground.  Connversvine will be leading worship on Friday, so come, spend some time worshipping, opening God’s Word and connecting with other Butler students.  It’s going to be a cold night, so we’ll have plenty of warm drinks.  We hope to see you there.

CLT is back as well.  Next Wednesday Christian Leadership Training will kick off with a split Men’s/Women’s Time.  The women will be meeting from 8-9:30 at the CRU House, next to BUPD, and the guys will be meeting at a location to be determined.  Plan to join us as we talk about being Men and Women of purity and how to understand God’s plan for us as we seek after Him.  There will be more details about these times on Friday night.  We look forward to seeing you at CLT next Wednesday night.

Hey everyone, I hope you had a really wonderful Christmas break and the semester is off to a good start!  We will be having our first CRU of the semester tonight at 9pm in the Brown and Gold room on the second floor of the union.  It should be pretty chill—some music and testimonies about the Campus Crusade Christmas Conference!  So come, relax, say hi, and worship with us.  We look forward to seeing you!

Hey Ladies,

Don’t forget we are having a Christmas party *from 7:30-9:00* (which is a correction to the evite sent out) Tuesday Dec 9 at the Cru house. So you don’t wander in the cold, the address is 519 W Hampton Dr beside BUPD.

Come relax as we decorate and of course eat cookies, enjoy some games, and celebrate Christmas.  I hope to see you there!

First, I know the last CLT was like drinking from a firehose.  So I’ve put the notes from it (and all the previous CLT’s) up on my blog, here

Audio should be up shortly.

Also, our second to last CLT is this week!  Ever feel like the character in Romans 7 – I do what I don’t want, and I don’t do what I want?  The Christian life is about following Jesus – about obedience to him.  How do we do it?

This week: The Holy Spirit in our lives.

And this week we’re sticking in one passage.  So bring your Bible and notebook and come worship and learn from God’s word with us!  It’s tonight (Wednesday), 9:15, JH141, as always.
