Welcome to UCR

We are excited that a new year is upon us and we are starting up our weekly meetings as well as Bible studies. Please come join us for our first Navnite this week.

Our first Navnite - WED @ 8PM - HUB 379

We want to help you grow in your faith while in college and would love to see you there. You will get a better picture of who we are and what we value... not to mention fun and meeting new friends.

A Bit About Us

We are a group of people growing in our faith through deep friendships and the Bible.

Growing in our faith - This is foundational to why we are here. We want to grow in our faith and help others to do the same.

Deep friendships - What a year it has been. Friendships have grown deep through dinners together, road trips, conferences, times around a campfire, and awesome hike to a cave, and sharing joys and struggles.

Bible - It is the voice of God and full of life. Years ago I had no idea how to read it, study it, or hear God's voice. A friend took the time to teach me and I love doing the same for others. It is truth and we value teaching how to study the Word well.

Summer 2009

You are probably wondering who the Navigators are and what we do here at UCR. Well, you have come to the right place. The Navigators have been around for 75 years and have ministries in all 50 states as well as 107 different countries. My wife and I moved to Riverside about 2 years ago to start up a brand new Navigator ministry here at UCR.

When I first went to college I had only been a Christian for a little over a year. I knew very little about what it meant to live out my faith. People talked about the need to develop your relationship with God but I didn't really know how. I eventually got involved with a ministry which happened to be The Navigators. I began learning who God is through bible study, prayer, devotional time, and fellowship. I had a guy a few years older than me helping me in many of these areas of life. I am still very thankful for those lessons I learned in college. They set a foundation in my life and today I have rich walk with God.

We want to help the students of UCR walk with God more closely. We value bible studies, discipleship, fellowship and just about anything else that deepens ones walk with God. We are a group of staff and students who love each other, have fun together, and challenge each other to grow more deeply.

If you are interested in growing in your relationship with God, please contact me and I would love to help.
