Summer Missions with Cru
You can spend part or all of your summer growing in your faith alongside other students.
What's this all about?
Summer Missions give you the opportunity to spend anywhere from a week to 10 weeks of your summer growing in your faith. You'll have a chance to meet people from across the country and around the world. You will get to study the Bible with others, share your faith, and build friendships that can last for the rest of your life. It's a grand adventure that you won't ever forget!
Where can I go?
You can go just about anywhere. This summer buckeyes are heading to Estonia, Chicago and Ocean City, New Jersey, but there are Summer Missions in tons of other places. Head to the Cru Summer Missions page to check out other locations and to learn more!
FLT is a community of Christian freshmen who desire to grow in their understanding of our mission as a movement of Cru, want to be more equipped in how to engage with their peers, and are eager to connect with other like-minded freshmen across campus.
FLT will meet on Thursdays from 5:30-7:00. For more info, ask a small group leader or contact FLT leaders Lydia (937-956-0269) or Bennett (330-472-6424).
