Missions
The motto of Campus Crusade for Christ has always been, “Reach the campus today; Reach the world tomorrow.” The belief has been, and still is, that if students take seriously the command of Christ to take the gospel to all nations, unlike any other group of people, they have the capacity to accomplish the task. In this section you’ll find articles dealing with Missions, The Great Commission, the Worldwide Student Network, and God’s global plan of redemption.
