About Us
We are a ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. The ELCA is a church that is energized by lively engagement in our faith and life. The mission of campus ministry in the ELCA is to invite people in academic settings to engage more deeply with the teachings of Jesus Christ and the community that bears his name, so that they can discover and
fulfill their vocation as disciples.
Through worship, study, fellowship and service, members of the academic community taste the fullness of God’s grace. As expansive as Christ’s love, campus ministry reaches out to all who teach and learn, inviting them to experience the challenge of following Jesus.
In 2018, the students and advisors chose to rebrand our ministry to: Crossroads Lutheran Campus Ministry at NDSU. Crossroads = connecting faith + life. For years our ministry was known as ULC/University Lutheran Center.
Crossroads Lutheran Campus Ministry is the is located on campus at NDSU. At the center of our ministry is radical hospitality and inclusion; love rooted in God’s gift of faith as we follow Jesus together. We strive to help people of all backgrounds shine with the light of Jesus Christ in every aspect of life.
We offer worship, bible studies, mission trips, retreats, hang-outs, and free food among other things.
Reconciling In Christ

every person is created in the image of God and embraced with extravagant love.
As a Reconciling in Christ ministry of the ELCA, we affirm God’s vision of dignity, wholeness,
and equity—celebrating people of all gender identities and expressions, sexual orientations,
faith traditions, abilities, races, and cultures—and we commit to accompanying marginalized communities, engaging in the ongoing work of anti-racism, and standing together against
fear and shame in the shared work of justice.
Here, you are welcome. Here, you belong.
