What is Cru?

Cru exists to journey together with every person toward a meaningful relationship with God and others.

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 Steven Halcomb?

Hey! I’m Steven Halcomb and I am originally from San Diego, California.  When I was a freshman at Poway High School in 2006, I was invited to be a part of a guys’ Bible study with Cru, and little did I know at that time how much Cru would have an impact on my life.  Over the next four years, I was involved in just about every Cru event I could go to, and because of that I was able to develop a very strong foundation in my faith while making life-long friendships.  After getting settled in Oklahoma City in 2017, I felt led to start a guys’ Bible study similar to the one I was involved in back in high school, hoping that eventually it would turn into a full Cru ministry.  Thankfully, God provided amazing volunteer leaders along with an eager group of students, and Cru Oklahoma City was officially launched in January of 2018. I am currently part time field staff with Cru and plan on joining full time staff this coming January.  I am extremely excited to see what God does through our students and I can’t wait to see more lives being changed! 

Who is Jordan Buss?

Hello! My name is Jordan Buss and I am so beyond excited to be a part of building, growing, and sending out leaders through Campus Crusade for Christ. I am originally from Arizona and attended Northern Arizona University.  I met my husband Chase Buss on a vacation visiting my family here in Oklahoma, and we decided to plant our future in Oklahoma after we got married in December of 2014. I received Jesus as my Lord and Savior at a young age and grew up in the church. My parents raised me to be a servant to God’s church and His people. They have always pushed for growth in my walk with Christ and to live a spirit filled life. I have always had a heart for student ministry and people in general. I truly believe that God can use anyone, anywhere, but I know that I am called to be in full time student ministry. I have been involved in Cru for about two years now and it has completely changed my life and directed me with God’s purpose and calling on my life.  I plan on joining full time staff with Cru in January and can’t wait to see how God blesses our ministry!

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.
