Reverse the Loss | Transform Universities | Impact the Marketplace

Every Student prepared & connected long before College!

Every single year roughly 70% of youth group grads fall away from the faith in large part because of what happens during the first days on campus.  Parents are heartbroken and we lose the potential students have to transform universities, the  workplace, and our nation.

That is all changing!  Churches are reversing this by preparing students and connecting students to ministries, churches and other incoming Christian friends many months before college, and it's being scaled nationally. 

Every Student Sent is an existing ground-breaking platform and national movement of ministries and churches being used nationally and ready mobilize in cities. 

A broad coalition of national Ministries and churches are part of this movement to help every student be prepared to know their career purpose and multiply disciples in ESS groups for their dorms and academic Department. They learn to change culture on the campus then the workplace. Now we are building a transition to the marketplace and engaging with every Marketplace Ministry since studies indicate that 35% to 59% don't find fellowship in their new city.

The Research 

Read how ESS provides answers for the research by Barna, Fuller Youth, TENX10, The Great Opportunity, and MovementDFW Not on our watch.

Barna Report - Career Discipleship
Barna believes this emphasis on careers presents an opportunity for the church to engage in what could be called “vocational discipleship”. The church has an opportunity to reach this next generation of teenagers through integrating career, and calling into their discipleship efforts.
