U.S. Campus Ministry Statistics Report
A life change can best be measured and described by the individual. These statistics reflect what God is doing in the lives of college students.
Each exposure represents a student who had a chance to hear the gospel. Each decision is a student who heard the gospel and trusted in Jesus Christ for forgiveness and eternal life. An involved new believer is a student who has not only trusted Christ through the ministry of Campus Crusade, but is now involved in a campus movement of evangelism and discipleship.
More than just numbers, these statistics reflect the heart of a loving God calling students into His kingdom and sending them out to tell others how they can know Him. He continues to show His compassion on today’s students.
