Dear CU Gloria Law Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

We are so grateful for your continued prayers and support for CU Gloria Law. As we step into this new semester, we wanted to share a special update from a milestone moment for our ministry—our very first Winter Retreat at the end of January!

This retreat was a much-needed time for our community to step away from the intensity of law school and refocus our hearts on Christ and His calling for us. Our theme, “Refocus,” guided us through a weekend of renewing our commitment to Jesus, recalling the purpose He has given us, and refreshing our passion to share the Gospel with those around us. From the moment we arrived, there was an undeniable sense that God had something special in store. We were blessed by sweet times of worship, honest and moving student testimonies, deep times of prayer, and messages from the Word of God that challenged and encouraged us.

Dear CU Caritas Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Greetings from Stanford! As we begin a new quarter, we are reminded of God’s faithfulness and the privilege we have to witness His work on this campus. Thank you for your prayers, encouragement, and generous support, which enable us to serve these students that God loves dearly!

So far this year we’ve seen God work in profound ways. This fall, a number of students prayed together nearly every day in small groups of two or three, coming all together weekly to pray as a larger group. As you can imagine, seeking after God in this way has brought about a turning point in many of their lives!

God is stirring something powerful in New York City, and we want you to be a part of it!

Christian Union New York believes that leaders matter—and even more so—Christian leaders matter! Leonard Ravenhill famously stated, "The church is waiting for the world to change, but the world is waiting for the church to lead. Revival tarries because we lack leaders who are fully surrendered to God, broken over sin, and burdened for souls.".

Dear CU Lumine Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Greetings and Happy New Year from New York City! We are excited about kicking off the spring semester. We just completed a several-day retreat with the Christian Union faculty at Camp of the Woods in NY. We had an opportunity to seek God, pray, participate in individual and group scripture reading, and come together in praise and worship to prepare for the upcoming spring semester.

Dear CU Nova Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Greetings from Princeton!

As I look back on 2024, I’m thankful for the power of God at work among Princeton students. Some highlights have included a great Freshman Welcoming Campaign, a powerful fall retreat, and some record turnouts at our Friday night Leadership Lecture Series. I’m personally blessed to have an amazing student leadership team that has stepped up in critical ways to take this ministry forward from difficult times after the pandemic. The culture and passion among our students have improved dramatically this past year, and our student leaders have had a large part to play in this regard.

Dear CU Libertas Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth” - Acts 1:8

Greetings from CU Libertas!

Happy New Year to you and your family!

As I reflect on Jesus’s last words before His ascension, I’m reminded of the power He has bestowed on believers everywhere to be effective witnesses of the gospel. Here at CU Libertas, we are gearing up for the spring semester and humbly relying on this same power, through the working of the Holy Spirit, to engage the campus at Brown in hearing the life-saving message of the gospel.

Dear CU Vita Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Greetings from Ithaca!

It’s been a quiet few weeks on the campus of Cornell University, but all of that is about to change as students start heading back to Ithaca from their holiday breaks. With over 16,000 undergraduates returning, the surge is always exciting to see, but it can also present some challenges. Please pray for all of these students as they travel.

Dear CU Vox Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

"I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building." - 1 Corinthians 3:6-9 (NIV)

After our (very) extended break here at Dartmouth, we are back on campus. The students have already had a few weeks of winter term, powering through a whole new slate of classes. Our first Vine was a rousing success, with more than 30 students turning out. Praise God for what He is doing!

Dear CU Gloria Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Happy New Year to you! I hope your Christmas season was filled with joy and rest and you’re starting 2025 feeling refreshed! Jim, our men's ministry fellow, and I just returned from the Christian Union Faculty Momentum, a five-day conference devoted to seeking God together in prayer, scripture, worship, and fellowship. We both met with the Lord and are feeling so encouraged for the future of Christian Union and, of course, for what God is doing on Harvard’s campus.

Dear CU Gloria Law Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Greetings from Harvard Law School!

As we begin 2025, I want to take a moment to reflect on all that God accomplished in 2024. In my six-plus years with Christian Union Gloria Law, I can confidently say that this past year has been the most fruitful and exciting season of ministry yet.
