Don't send your students to college alone! 

The freshmen they meet during the first 72 hours on campus determine their friends and faith trajectory.  Send them together with a team! It's also when non-believers are most open to the Gospel!

Teens are getting excited for the college mission

Now you can go through this free website together with your 10th-12th grade student and start selecting colleges based on ministries and churches you can actually connect with and talk to. Connecting in advance stops the 70% faith drop off, empowers them, and gives your student ownership of the process.  More students are coming to faith on college campuses than any time since the Jesus Movement.  Now is season for them to gain the vision of what can happen when they go to campus with a team.  Get Inspired by these Leaders!

One of the best ways to help HEAV is to catalyze a student movement!  Find a few students who are passionate about helping others and have them join the below HEAV student group and invite their friends.  We will show you how to "promote" them to group leaders. We can also give student leaders some short training and give them national recognition which they can put on their leadership resume!

Every Student Sent is a national coalition and unique community-based platform for preparing 10-12th grade students with a vision of connecting to college ministries, churches, and each other in order to propel them towards Gospel-centered mission as they navigate and engage culture during college.  It's a movement of major college ministries, youth ministries, denominations, Christian schools, and homeschool groups to connect and prepare teens for future leadership.  When you and your students register on this free platform you get full access to the features and resources including the embedded social groups of national college and youth ministries that your students can thrive in.  This Homeschool page of www.EveryStudentSent.org is a jumping off spot to orient you to the features and resources.  Every Student Sent is free and funded by generous foundations, churches, and donors.  See the Vision on how you can help your city. 

HEAV Every Student Sent Groups

Every Student Sent is an open platform that allows you to create individual groups for CO-OPs and Churches. Here are two state-wide groups you or your students can follow and use to interact with each other and find and share resources.  Reach out to John Decker at john.decker@campusrenewal.org if you want to set up a smaller one for your own area.  Click each image to view or follow group.  (If you are not yet registered on Every Student Sent yet, you will be prompted to do so)
