We wanted to pass along some exciting news - after several years of prayer, research and hard work...Campus Crusade for Christ finally announced our new name change at our meeting last night.
So...drum roll please....
Here ya go:
It's an awesome step in the right direction of "being all things to all people" as our ministry continues to change & evolve to best bring our entire culture to Christ...all while keeping the mission and message the same! If you've missed some of the conversation, one of the key motivators was that the "Crusade" portion of our national name delivered a negative connotation amongst those we are eagerly trying to reach.
If we're honest, Paul & I were nervous, excited, & anticipatory about the name change. What would it be? Would it carry with it the same 'message' as our old name? But...Paul and I were simply in awe of the stories of how the name was chosen to be "Cru"...versus some of the other choices. They are pure God-sized stories. So humbling and exciting. Even the logo & the colors were carefully thought through and chosen with a purpose. I love that we work for a ministry that is so intentional about reaching the lost that it labors over every detail with love and prayerful attention!

Meanwhile, continue to pray God will direct each and every one of us as we seek to serve Him best! Can't wait to see what else He has in store for us this week!
