Welcome to RUF @ VCU

We are glad that you have stopped by to check us out.  RUF is a Christian organization where you are invited to explore what it means to know and follow Jesus Christ.  Regardless of your beliefs or backgrounds, RUF is a place where you will be challenged with the truth claims of Jesus, embraced by the love of Jesus, and confronted with God's grace to you.

SUMMER CONFERENCE!


What are you going to be doing the week after finals? How about heading down to the beach in Florida for RUF Summer Conference?! You can find out more and register here. You can check out some photos from last year in our albums on this site our on our Facebook page.

Tuesday Nights Large Group

Come join us on Tuesday nights this Spring semester as we make our way through the New Testament letter to the Colossians. We meet at "The Center at VCU" (819 S Cathedral Pl, Richmond, VA 23220) from 9-10:15, which is right at the intersection of Cabell Library, the Commons, and the Cathedral.  Hope you can join us.

Small Groups

This semester we have girls study being led by Taylor Wilhelm and Emily Williams looking at the book of Galatians. They are meeting on Thursdays at 4. Also we have a guys group that will be meeting weekly studying Tim Keller's Gospel in Life series. This will be a breakfast group meeting either Thursdays or Friday morning, though that is yet to be determined. 

One other thing that we are doing in RUF this semester is reading through the New Testament together. Some of us are reading about three chapters a day and will be getting together approximately every other week to discuss the reading. We'll be having lunch together in the first floor of Shafer on these dates to discuss the readings: Jan 30, Feb 13, Feb 27, March 5, March 19, April 2, April 16, April 30.

If you are interested in hearing more about any of these groups you can can contact Peter Rowan.

Tutoring with STEP

This semester we are starting to help out with STEP (steprichmond.org) in their after school tutoring program in Gilpen Court. We will be joining them from 4-5 every Wednesday. If you are interested we will meet at Park and Harrison at "Q-Tip" Park in front of the PAC at 3:45 and drive over to the Calhoun Center in Gilpen Court. We should be back on campus at 5:15. Hope you can come out and share the love of Jesus through words of grace and deeds of love to the children of Gilpen Court.
