College Campus Ministry

InterVarsity/USA is an interdenominational college ministry whose mission is to establish witnessing communities at every campus across the country. You can get involved through worship gatherings, small group bible studies, prayer meetings, retreats and conferences, and more. In the Gary diocese, IV exists at Purdue University Northwest and Valparaiso University, and has had a recent group at Indiana University Northwest, but not currently. Some years the PNW group has a Catholic specific bible study.  If you are a PNW or VU student looking for fellowship, you can contact Morgan Folgers (morgan.folgers@intervarsity.org). If you live in the area but aren’t a student at those campuses, you can connect with Colleen Degen (colleen.degen@intervarsity.org), who oversees IV in Northwest Indiana.
