Cincinnati Cru
Cincinnati Cru is a safe place to come and meet other students, explore your questions about Christianity, study the Bible, and grow in your faith. Whether you’ve been a Christian for a long time, or you’re just checking things out for the first time, we’d love to have you come join us each week at one of the many Bible studies that meet around campus, or at Citywide.
Bible Studies
Bible Studies
Cru Bible studies meet throughout the week at UC, NKU and TMU. Undergrads of any age are invited to come learn and connect with other students. This semester, our Bible studies are looking at the book of Colossians—learning how to look to Jesus as our real source of life.

As the largest missionary organization in the world, Cru is well equipped to prepare and send you for true gospel impact. Cru staff will lead and invest in you as you take steps of faith to share Christ with others.
Our International Partnership
Our International Partnership
Zagreb, Croatia
Zagreb, Croatia
In 2019, Cincinnati Cru began an international partnership with Cru in Zagreb, Croatia (known locally as Udruga Fokus).
In Croatia, less than 1% of the population would identify as evangelical Christians (those who believe people are saved by faith, not works). All across the nation, there are college students who have no one to introduce them to Jesus—as many as 250,000 young people may not know anyone who has a personal relationship with Jesus. It is for this reason that Cincinnati Cru has partnered with Udruga Fokus!
Through Christmas break trips, summer missions and 1-2 year internships, we are committing to send laborers out into the harvest fields of Croatia!

Our Staff
Our Staff
Cru is a caring community, passionate about connecting people to Jesus Christ.
Ethan and Kaity met as students at Ohio University, where Kaity studied journalism and Spanish and Ethan studied Middle Childhood Education. Before joining staff in Cincinnati, Kaity interned with Cru at Ohio University and Athletes in Action (Cru’s sports ministry) and Ethan taught sixth grade. They lead our ministry to sorority and fraternity students, as well as provide direction to the staff team and student leaders across our campuses in Cincinnati. They love checking out Half Price Books, going to FC Cincinnati games, and visiting the Cincinnati Zoo with their daughter, Emma.
After graduating with a degree in Agriscience Education in 2018 from The Ohio State University, Rachel spent two years interning with Cru at Ohio State. Not only is she passionate about sharing the Gospel with others, Rachel is an avid Ohio State Buckeyes and Cincinnati sports fan. She also enjoys being in the outdoors hiking and being in the kitchen baking and cooking for friends. She is married to Sam and they love hosting game nights together!
Josh is a graduate of Virginia Tech. He served as an intern with Cru at VT for one year, before moving to Cincinnati to serve with the campus team here (and marry his wife, Serena, who teaches middle school in Cincy!). Josh cares for the men of UC through discipleship and Bible studies. Along with introducing students to Christ through evangelism, Josh also loves introducing others to Spikeball!
