“Welcome to CCF.” That’s the greeting you’ll often hear at Christian Campus Fellowship here in Atlanta. It is a community where Georgia Tech students live life together. They serve and grow together in Christian faith.
Christian Campus Fellowship is a Christian organization at Georgia Tech. It was founded in 1987. Rick Harper and his wife Beth were the founders. They were passionate about sharing the love of Jesus Christ. They wanted to reach students at Georgia Tech and the wider Atlanta community.
CCF’s beliefs come from the New Testament of the Bible. They center on the idea that Jesus is the Christ. He is the Son of the Living God. GTCCF holds a theologically conservative position. This is true for its teaching and practice of ministry.
Georgia Tech is diverse. GTCCF staff and students meet people from all over the world. These people hold different beliefs and worldviews. As followers of Jesus, the ministers of GTCCF treat all people with respect. They show compassion and unconditional love.
CCF offers many activities and ways to get involved. Students can explore weekly events and off-campus retreats. Small groups are also available. Freshmen can find information about activities and events just for them. The Service Opps page describes the compassion ministry.
