University of Arizona

Join us for Dinner and Discussions on Tuesdays at 7 PM in Chemistry 138! (Free dinner at 6:45!)

Welcome to RUF at University of Arizona!

RUF (Reformed University Fellowship) is a Christian Campus Ministry for students at the U of A to explore the truth claims of Christianity and experience the hope, peace, and joy found in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

RUF is a place to ask questions, explore your doubts, and engage your heart and mind with Jesus Christ among a loving and welcoming community.

Everyone wants (and needs) to feel welcome, like they belong with and around others. At RUF, we want to create time, space, relationships, and conversations where true welcoming can happen.

Wherever you find yourself ("convinced" or “unconvinced," burned or bored, cynical or spiritual, passionate or stagnant), we hope you can come to RUF for welcome from God and from others--and to join in offering welcome others.

"Therefore, welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God."
Romans 15:7

No matter who you are or what you believe you are welcome at RUF!

Howdy! I’m Paige Jackson. I grew up in Daphne, Alabama and recently graduated college. I studied theology, emerging media, & communications at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee.

I love laughter, humpback whales, whimsical dinner parties, watermelon, and Paddington 2. You can find me in a local coffee shop drinking a cappuccino & pursing my lifelong quest to find the best blueberry muffin ever (Suggestions welcome. Email above).

Most importantly, I believe our only hope is Jesus. He is kind and loving and beyond description. These past few years I have learned so much through RUF about grace, justice, hospitality, and relationships. I’m pumped to continue learning about God and to do life alongside college students at University of Arizona.

Please be praying for us out in Tucson and let me know how I can be praying for you! You rock.

Russ is a very energetic, outgoing guy who’s super excited to serve with RUF at the University of Arizona! Russ mostly grew up in a Chicago suburb known as Addison in Illinois before getting his Masters in the Science of Accounting from Texas Tech University. During that time, RUF taught him the importance of discipleship and being equipped to serve the church. Russ now hopes he can bring some of that energy as he looks forward to walking alongside students at the University of Arizona, meeting them where they are, and showing them that God’s relationship with us doesn’t have to be just a once a week thing, but we can be filled each and every day!
