Welcome!

Welcome to the Inn's blog. The Inn is the large-group service of University Ministries, a college ministry of University Presbyterian Church in Seattle. This space will be used to answer questions, clarify sermons, announce opportunities, and more. In the near future, we will be bringing you answers to some of the questions that weren't answered at the Q&A time done by Mike & Shari Gaffney as part of our relationship series. In the meantime, we thought we would start this off by sharing the mission statement of University Ministries:

To the Glory of God…

Our purpose is to "Go and make disciples of all nations," beginning with college-age individuals and young adults in the greater Seattle area. We aspire to:

• Introduce them to Jesus Christ and urge them to commit their lives to Him as Savior and Lord
• Help them develop an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ

We prepare God’s people for works of service so that the body of Christ may be built up by:

• Teaching and equipping them to better understand and communicate their faith.
• Helping them experience Christian community and intimate, honest relationships with each other.
• Beginning the process of helping them discover and use their spiritual and leadership gifts.
• Providing opportunities and a vision for a life of mission in their communities and around the world.

As part of God’s call to us, we seek to understand the various needs of college-age individuals and young adults and to creatively minister to those needs. Our desire is that their faith established today will stand firm tomorrow.

Our Theme: "Pursuing Real Life in Jesus Christ”
