Refuge - Christian Student Fellowship Weekly Gathering

CSF is a Christian student organization and recognized campus ministry at  UMASS Lowell reaching out to college students at UML and the surrounding area. We are sponsored by the Baptist Convention of New England.


CSF exists to glorify God by:

  1. helping students grow in relationship with Jesus Christ
  2. providing a safe environment to grow in community with one another and
  3. to challenge students to make a Christ-like impact on their campus and world.

To further illustrate our ministry through words, consider the three parts of our name…


CHRISTIAN Our ministry exists for the purpose of Christ. We want to help Christian students grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ. You may be asking, “But, what if I am not a Christian?” We are so glad you asked. Everyone is welcome! We also want to be a place where you can learn more about Christianity and what it means to follow Jesus with your life while also growing in awesome friendships with other students your age.

 

STUDENT This is an organization relevant to college students — mainly because many aspects of our ministry are led by students who plan and work together to involve students here at UML.

 

FELLOWSHIP This may seem like a “churchy” word, but to us, it is one of the most important aspects of this ministry. To us, it represents our goal of community — or better yet, our sense of family. Jesus modeled this when He said, “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another” (John 13:35).

 

In your time here at UMASS Lowell, we want to challenge you to find your place to grow spiritually. CSF at UML is Christ Centered, Church Related, and Student Led! Come, give us a chance! We know you won’t be disappointed.
