essentials

There’s always something going on in Cru whether it’s Girl’s Tables of 8, Ultimate Frisbee, Cru Escape, Men’s Beef Fest, Volleyball in Sewell Park, or a number of other things to check out. However, there are a few things that are the core components of Cru...

> Thursday Night Cru - This is a great place to check out Cru. You can meet some peeps, be challenged in your journey with God, and hang out with us afterward at Taco C. Thursdays, 7:30pm at ASB 315 (third floor above the Den). Click here for a map.

> Journey - We believe in building up leaders and laborers who will make an eternal impact for Jesus Christ on our campus and around the world. Our hope is that through Journey, you will not only be extremely equipped and prepared to have a personal ministry at Texas State, but also in your future community and church. Bottom line: We hope to develop people in their walk with God and to effectively equip them for a lifetime of ministry. We meet every Thursday at 5-6:30p at the First Presbyterian Church starting on Sept 9, 2010 (and only lasts 9 weeks). Oh! And don't forget the home-cooked meals provided each week. Come join us at the Cru family dinner table. Click here for a map.

> 242 Groups- These are our smaller community groups. Want to know students better than the small talk at the Thursday Night Cru meeting? Want a place to serve? Want to have a blast with a group of other students while being challenged in your pursuit of God? Then plug into a 242.

> Fall Getaway - It's about mid-way through the semester and it time to pull back and take a much needed break. Fall Retreat is a Cru favorite! We'll head out to the Hill Country for the weekend and connect with God and with the Cru community. It's a fantastic way to get to know students better. We'll hike, swim, play, eat, laugh, and be challenged to grow spiritually. October 15-17, 2010.

> Winter Conference- An intense 4 days of connecting with God and other students. Plus you'll get your hands dirty with real life ministry. We'll join students in Cru from many other campuses in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Lousiana. Jan 1-5, 2011 in Ft. Worth, TX at a new swank hotel.

> Spring Break - detail are TBA, check back with us.
