What is Campus House?

Purdue Christian Campus House is a non-denominational church community in the heart of Purdue’s campus. Made up of students, young professionals, families, and retirees, our heart is to be a welcoming, diverse, multi-generational church that cares well for one another and those outside our doors. We hope to come alongside you in your discipleship to Jesus and equip you to live for His Kingdom.

What to Expect

You can find us at 1000 Mitch Daniels Blvd. (across from Lily Hall), close enough to walk from most Purdue residence halls. We host Sunday worship services at 9am and 10:45am during the schoolyear, along with a midweek gathering called Align at 7pm on Wednesdays. Our heart is that each gathering would be a weekly re-connection with one another, the Gospel at work in our individual and collective stories, and the grace and truth of Jesus.

Parking Available

Limited parking is available in the gravel lot at the corner of State and Waldron, and Purdue's University Garage is free on weekends.

Prayer & Worship

We make space to share in communion together each week.

Childcare & Sunday School

We offer children's ministry for babies–fifth graders at the 9am service during the school year.

Biblical Teaching & Application

We incorporate biblical teaching that’s relevant and applicable to everyday life, helping you grow in your faith

OUR VISION

A Jesus-centered community being formed together in His ways for the sake of the campus, the city, and the world.

We desire to be a multigenerational community of Jesus-followers aware of our identities in Christ, secure in the Father's heart, filled with the Spirit, rooted in Christian community, and equipped for Kingdom living. We long to see churches, homes, workplaces, and prayer rooms worldwide filled with Boilermakers for whom God’s grace and truth are the impetus, motivation, and eternal reality of their lives.

OUR MISSION

To be a people of presence, belonging, healing, and equipping who are sent into the world with the grace and truth of Jesus.

We long to make God’s presence known on Purdue’s campus as a vital part of the Body of Christ throughout Greater Lafayette. From our geographic position in the center of campus, we are uniquely positioned to minister to the thousands of students, faculty, and staff who call Purdue home. Within our context at a globally-recognized university, God has gifted us with opportunities to learn from our sisters and brothers in the global Body of Christ, to be equipped to engage our neighbors with authenticity and care, and to serve our diverse campus community in ways that point to the hope of Jesus.

Contextual Discipleship

We believe God calls us to live distinctively at the intersection of faith and culture in a way that engages our neighbors authentically, consistently, lovingly, and contextually with grace and truth.

In the Heart of Campus

We are located at the literal center of campus uniquely positioned to minister to students and the Purdue community.

Multi-Generational Community

Campus House seeks to be a multi-generational community comprised of students, young professionals, families, and retirees who care for each other well regardless of life stage.

Beliefs and Values

We believe that there is one true, Holy God, eternally existing in three persons – Father, Son (Jesus Christ), and Holy Spirit – each of whom possesses equally all the attributes of deity and characteristics of personality.

Composed of the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments, we believe that Scripture, in its entirety, originated with God and that it was given through the instrument of chosen men. We hold that the whole of Scripture has a redemptive arc which points to Jesus. This Bible is unique and infallible in that it is reliable and trustworthy to align us with the heart and will of God and equip us for being apprentices of Jesus.

Following Jesus, becoming His apprentice, means that we are also members of His body, the Church, a kind of family that embodies, demonstrates, and proclaims the way of Jesus and the whole of the Gospel. As a family on mission, we seek to build bridges, do justice, extend hospitality, create beauty, and love others in ways that reflect Christ.
