Auburn University

Join us on Monday nights from 8-9 pm in Dudley B6

Welcome to RUF at Auburn! Our mission is to reach students for Christ and equip them with the knowledge and experience they need to serve in God's Kingdom for the rest of their lives. As an organization we strive to embody the lived graciousness of the Gospel proclaimed by Jesus Christ and his disciples. We believe that you are never so good that you are beyond the need of God's grace and you are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God's grace, offered in Jesus.

Meet Our Team

Tanner Crum

Tanner Crum

Campus Minister

The Crums have been serving with RUF at Auburn since 2019 (from left: Spender (2020), Tanner, Kelsey, Rosalie (2024), and Heston (2022). Tanner and Kelsey went to the University of South Carolina where they were first introduced to RUF as students. After college, they moved to Greenville, SC, and Tanner worked as an RUF Intern at Furman University. In 2015, Tanner began his seminary career at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte where he received his M.Div. and Kelsey founded a mobile dance outreach non-profit organization called Carolina Dance Collaborative. During his time in seminary, Tanner worked at Downtown Presbyterian Church, Grace and Peace Presbyterian Church and was an Interim Campus Minister at Wofford College. Needless to say, they love RUF and are excited to be a part of the work God is doing at Auburn!

Gracie experienced God's goodness in immeasurable ways during her time in RUF at Wake Forest and throughout her three years of the RUF Internship. She could not be more excited to stay on staff with Auburn RUF and walk alongside college students as they experience God at work in their lives.

He loves the outdoors, sports, being active, reading, and music. He spent two summers in college working at Alpine Camp for Boys in Mentone, Alabama. The combination of RUF and Alpine is where God revealed the desire to pursue ministry full time. He is thrilled to be moving to Auburn for the next two years to help reach and equip students for Christ!

RUF played a transformative role in her life, shaping both who she is and her walk with Christ today. She is beyond excited to be joining staff at Auburn University and cannot wait to connect with and walk alongside students as the Lord works through each of their unique stories! War Eagle!

Evan grew up in a small town outside of Chattanooga, Tennessee, and graduated from the University of Mississippi with a degree in Public Policy Leadership and minors in Southern Studies and Journalism. Some of Evan's favorite moments from RUF Ole Miss were meeting with his interns. RUF also served as a place to find rest during his busy weeks.

He is excited to meet students at Auburn and grow closer to Christ during the Internship.
