Texas A&M University

Join us Wednesday nights at 8:00 PM in All Faiths Chapel

Howdy! Welcome to Texas A&M RUF. We are a campus ministry of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) that welcomes students from any and all walks of life. Students from a wide variety of church and religious backgrounds are involved here at RUF. We are here for the "convinced" and the "unconvinced."

Our ministry is centered upon the person and work of Christ. We believe the Christian life is not primarily about what we do, but rather who we are. RUF is focused on helping students learn to live all of life in light of God's Word and his work on their behalf.

God created us to live in relationship with himself and our fellow man. Unfortunately sin has wrecked our lives and relationships. It is our desire to help students understand and apply the redemptive work of God in their lives. We want to show students how they are to live in relationship with God and one another.

Meet Our Team

Austin McCann

Austin McCann

Campus Minister
Austin was born and raised in Memphis, TN. He began attending RUF as a freshman at Mississippi State University. Through the ministry of God's Word and meaningful friendships, the Lord used RUF to show Austin his deep need for grace in the Gospel and an ever-growing love for Christ and His Church. He also met his wonderful wife, Alex, through RUF. After graduating from MSU, Austin worked as an RUF intern at Auburn University. In 2018, the McCanns moved to Charlotte, NC where Austin attended Reformed Theological Seminary. In 2022, the McCanns moved to Aggieland to begin working with RUF at Texas A&M. They have a one year old son, Henry and are expecting in November. Austin enjoys all things outdoors, reading a good book, hole in the wall restaurants and watching movies and sports.
Emma Pearson

Emma Pearson

Intern

Emma was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, and moved to Georgia when entering middle school. She graduated from the University of Georgia (go dawgs!) with an AB in Theatre. Her best friend and roommate of two years introduced her to RUF, where RUF quickly became a home for Emma. There, she made her closest college friends and felt the freedom to experience the love of Christ fully, and grow into who He is making her to be. Though she will dearly miss UGA, she is so excited to see what the Lord has in store at Texas A&M!

In her free time, Emma will probably be watching reruns of anything Star Wars, drawing, or thrifting. She loves the city of London more than anywhere in the world, and is an avid lover of theatre and film. Most of all, Emma loves her friends and making new ones.
