About Us

We invite you to be a part of this community during your formational college years.

We are a fellowship of people from a diversity of backgrounds both culturally and spiritually who come together out of our common love for Jesus. We are passionate about prayer, studying scripture, justice, and racial reconciliation. Whether you have been a follower of Jesus for many years or are simply interested in exploring the Christian faith we welcome you.

But don't just read about us, the best way to get to know us is to come to our large group for a time of musical worship, prayer and biblical teaching that is relevant to our lives as college students. Also consider becoming part of a small group in your resident hall or one near by where you can get to know people more intimately and take time to look at passages from the Bible and discuss their original meaning and their relevance for us today. Finally, we hold various conferences off-campus every semester.

Be sure to learn more about each part of CSU Chico InterVarsity by following the links below:

Large Group - Everyone meets weekly for a night of worship through music, drama, teaching and prayer.

Small Group - Bible studies are hosted all over campus and off campus. Almost all the resident halls have their own small group. All are welcome!

Conferences - We usually have about four conferences every year, including one every semester. They are incredible amounts of fun, just ask anyone in IV.

Leader's Team - This group of folks makes the fellowship happen. They lead small groups, facilitate and plan our large group meetings, and do so much more. This is a team committed to serving, loving the campus, and being developed as leaders who follow Jesus. Ask the staff if you would like to learn more about how you can be part of this team.

Summer Mission Opportunities – One of the best things that InterVarsity has to offer! These are life shaping experiences were you will be able to learn more about God’s heart for the world. Our Chico chapter will be sending students on a six-week overseas project and to the ten-day Oakland Urban plunge for the summer of ’06. Talk to the staff for more information.
