What is Cru?
How will my child benefit from Cru in High School?
Community
The high school culture is all about inclusion. Cru invites all students to their events, and offers those who want to get further involved the opportunity to deepen their faith, express their faith, and grow in leadership.
Caring adults
It’s been said that young people need five significant others in their lives on their way to being mature healthy adults.. That’s why we seek, at the first opportunity, to meet you, the parents or guardians of students involved. Together, we build a caring community around our young people.
Getaways
Several times a year, Cru offers experiences for students that go beyond the high school campus. We offer camp/retreat experiences twice a year, where students have a ton of fun, and also learn how to become a leader on their campus. We also offer global excursions for students ready to make their faith known to others in different countries.
Who is Josh Jimenez?
I grew up in central California in the town of Turlock, and after graduating high school, went on to the University of Southern California. It was there where I not only received my bachelor’s degree but also fell in love with the vision of Cru to reach every people group across the globe. After being overseas for two years, I came back and joined the ministry here in San Diego. I truly love getting to work at schools in Escondido and see God change the lives of today’s youth.
Thanks for checking us out!
It’s always encouraging to know that there are others reinforcing the values that we have sought to instill. Our Cru ministries and events are designed to do just that.
Teenagers have plenty of questions about God, how to own their faith, and just about life in general. We are here to listen and walk with the students of our community, and help them to process life through the lens of Scripture. Our aim in doing so is that they are led to Jesus, and that they can help others find hope in Him as well.
So please, roam around the site and feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
