“Cru” is short for Campus Crusade for Christ, an inter-denominational Christian ministry that has been at Duke for over 40 years.

We exist to help students connect with Jesus Christ and with each other during their time in college. Many students in Cru are professing Christians, but we welcome all students, regardless of spiritual background. Whether you are a “believer” or a “doubter,” new to Christianity or burned out on it, firmly committed or consistently undecided, we hope that you find our community to be a fun and welcoming place to spend some time. If you have any questions about Duke Cru, contact our Campus Director, Charlie Densmore:

It's been a while since posting here! But just wanted to invite any Duke Cru Alums in the Triangle area to join us for a Duke Cru Family & Alumni dessert this Saturday from 7:30-10:00pm in the Divinity School AMCR room. It's open house style to drop in when you can.

Welcome back, y’all! Can you believe it’s FDOC? As you begin classes today and catch up with friends today, take a few minutes to pray. Invite God into your semester and begin the semester in a posture of dependence on Him. Swipe to read a liturgy for the start of classes.

We hear often that we can model our prayers after the book of Psalms, but we don’t talk about why we should do this. Learning how to pray like David and the other psalmists can deepen our relationship with God and play a role in our sanctification.

This week, we want to challenge you to pick a psalm, respond to the 4 questions, and practice praying through it. Spend some time processing what the Lord might be teaching you through that psalm.
