University Ministries

The mission of University Ministries (UMin) is to engage the North Park (NPU) campus community with the gospel of Jesus Christ in a holistic way and to equip leaders to extend God’s Kingdom on campus, in the city, and globally. UMin welcomes people from all backgrounds and beliefs, united by a common purpose: to become all they were created to be and to make a meaningful difference in the world.

Terence Gadsden, campus pastor and athletic chaplain, supports this journey by helping students integrate their faith with how they learn, live, and lead.

Worship

We seek to provide a dynamic, Spirit-filled environment where people can encounter God, worship and engage with God alongside others, and be transformed in God’s presence.

Grow

We help students grow in their Chrisitan identity and develop in Christ-like character.

Serve

We create opportunities for students and the campus community to put their faith into action.
