Campus Crusade for Christ International
Campus Crusade for Christ is an interdenominational, international, Christian organization, dedicated to reaching the world for Christ. Campus Crusade was originally founded by Bill Bright as a ministry to reach students on University Campuses. It expanded from there, and has ministries for athletes, business executives, political leaders, and others. Campus Crusade sends missionaries all over the globe, and participates in many different types of aid work. (see Campus Crusade for Christ's main page for more info)

Our Mission
The purpose of Crossroads is to “turn lost students into Christ-centered laborers.” (Matt. 28:18-20; 9:36-38) We want to pursue this through three basic avenues:

• Taking the initiative to share our faith so that every student on Mercer’s campus can hear the message of the gospel. (Col. 1:28; Rom. 10:13-14)
• Offering a place where Christian students can connect with other Christians and grow in their faith. (Eph. 2:10; 2 Tim. 2:2)
• Equipping students to walk with God for a lifetime and to have an impact for Christ on the campus and the world. (2 Cor. 5:14-15; Rev. 5:9; Rom. 12:1-2; Matt. 24:14)

Biblical Basis

Matthew 28:18-20
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Matthew 9:36-38
When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field."

Colossians 1:28
We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.

Romans 10:13-14
for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

Ephesians 2:10
For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

II Timothy 2:2
And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others.

II Corinthians 5:14-15
For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

Revelation 5:9
And they sang a new song:
"You are worthy to take the scroll
and to open its seals,
because you were slain,
and with your blood you purchased men for God
from every tribe and language and people and nation.

Romans 12:1-2
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Matthew 24:14
And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
