Stated Purpose
"to help fulfill the Great Commission in the power of the Holy Spirit by winning people to faith in Jesus Christ, building them in their faith, and sending them to win and build others."
Campus Crusade for Christ (Cru) seeks to evangelize and offers discipleship which it conducts through different ministry avenues. These approaches include working with college students on college and university campuses, working with high school students, working with adults in their careers (including people in various business environments, the military, the United Nations, and the government), providing assistance to churches in low-income communities, working with athletes (both professional and student), providing relief services for people in poverty or who are victims of disaster, and offering programs to assist couples with their marriages and parenthood. Cru uses various tools to explain how to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, including The JESUS Film, the GodTools app, and the Four Spiritual Laws.
