Steve Lammers

Steve Lammers

Campus Minister

Ever since becoming a Christian at Clemson University, Steve has had a passion for ministry to college students.  After attending Covenant Seminary in Saint Louis, he served as the Campus Minister with RUF at UF from 2003 to 2014.  Then, after pastoring in two different churches, he returned in 2022 to do what he's always loved: "reaching students for Christ, and equipping students to serve."  Steve has been married to Jenna since 1995, has two teenage daughters, and is a bandwagon college football fan alternating between Clemson, Florida, and Central Florida.  He loves doing 10-minute gym workouts, playing chess, watching Marvel movies, and playing old-man-sports like pickleball.

Micah Coleman

Intern

Micah grew up in Bryan, Texas, and went to school at Texas A&M University, graduating in 2023 with a major in genetics and a minor in English. As the son of a PCA pastor, Micah knew RUF would be a part of his college experience but never could have guessed the impact it would have on his life and development. Through RUF he made many lifelong friends, who walked along side him, encouraging and uplifting him in the faith.
Micah enjoys comfy sweaters, filmmaking, going to the gym, and playing soccer. He is super excited to see what the Lord has in store for him and can’t wait to be in Gator Country.

Emily grew up in Columbia, SC and studied math and Spanish at the University of South Carolina. RUF was her campus ministry home during undergrad and she’s really excited to get to know the students at the University of Florida and the stories God is writing with their lives. In her free time, Emily likes to read, bake new gluten-free goodies, and work out.
