Our group welcomes graduate students, young professionals, and families in their 20s and 30s living in the Greater Lafayette community. Our ministry offers young adults opportunities for spiritual growth and Christian fellowship. Our goal is to be saints and follow the “upward call” in Christ Jesus.
