For Parents

Cru at Cal welcomes your interest and questions about your son or daughter’s involvement in our ministry. The resources and events offered here at Cru provide development and opportunities in the areas of faith and leadership. Cru offers a number of conferences and mission projects that allow students to grow in their knowledge of God and help others find meaningful answers to life’s questions.

Cru at Cal is a ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ, an interdenominational Christian organization founded in 1951 with the purpose of helping fulfill the Great Commission of Jesus Christ as recorded in Matthew 28:18-20. When Bill and Vonette Bright first launched Campus Crusade for Christ, the underlying concept was to “win the campus today and change the world tomorrow.” More than 50 years later, the mission remains the same. For more about Campus Crusade for Christ, visit our Ministry Profile.

Traditional, orthodox Christian beliefs are at the core of the Campus Crusade for Christ movement. We hold to the essential claims of the Christian heritage including the birth, life, death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. We have no ties to any one particular denomination but work instead in cooperation with many local churches to aid the spiritual development of young men and women.
