An Exciting Transition

We’d love to announce to you an exciting transition!

Jeff was recently asked by our regional leadership team of Cru to consider taking a leadership position overseeing college campuses in the greater Sacramento area.  After spending time praying and receiving feedback from peers and leaders, we’ve decided to accept the position.

We’re excited for what the Lord is calling us to!  The greater Sacramento area has about 150,000 college students.  Over time, we would love to see each one of them have an opportunity to put their trust in Jesus.  Jeff will get to co-lead a team of staff and students seeking to fulfill this mission, and Cameron will get to be a valued and experienced team member.  While there is an established group of students already involved in Cru at Cal State University of Sacramento (CSUS), our vision is greater than just one campus.  We are trusting the Lord to reach every campus in the surrounding area.

While we are excited to trust the Lord for a new scope of students, we are sad to leave our current team and students at UC Davis.  Cameron has spent eight years at Davis (four as a student and four as full-time staff with Cru) and Jeff five years.  We’ve seen the Lord bring students to know him, build them up in their faith, and use them as leaders on campus and after they graduate to reach those around them.  The past five years of changed life stories in prayer letters have testified to this! What has made leaving Davis easier and all that the Lord is doing here, however, is knowing that there is a solid group of strong leaders, especially among the staff team. The Lord will continue to work in and among the staff and students.  We feel that UC Davis is in good hands!

Staff leadership in Sacramento, however, has been shorthanded.  We are excited to help fill a huge need and see many students’ lives changed as a result!

Please pray for our transition.  There is already lots of transition with the addition of Abby.  Now, we will move to a new city, find a new church, and have a new role with Cru.  It’s all exciting, but a transition nonetheless.

We’re grateful for you as you are with us in this transition!  Excited to see what the Lord does in the coming years!

Prayer Requests

Please pray for our Davis students as they prepare for summer! Pray that they would walk closely with Jesus as they go home, work, and travel!

Praise God for the 5+ years of ministry that Jeff and I have experienced in Davis!  God has blessed us with many firsts here- college, meeting, marrying, first home, baby, etc!

Please pray for us as we prepare and transition to Sac. Pray for our move and housing in Sac.  And pray that God would bless our new team and the students we reach there.
