Wake Forest University

We gather Tuesday nights at 8pm and throughout the week for parties, small groups, and service.

We are a community of students seeking to love God and love others. Our goal is to help students know and follow Jesus Christ as they walk through their college years and beyond.

Jesus did not come to save the righteous, but ordinary sinners like us. At RUF, we do not have it all together. We are in need of grace. That means everyone is welcome and wanted in RUF, regardless of personal or religious background. RUF exists for the "convinced" and the "unconvinced," the lost, the found, the burned, bored, cynical, or spiritual. Whoever you are and whatever your story, RUF is here for you!

Meet Our Team

Chris Horne

Chris Horne

Campus Minister

Chris grew up in Macon, Georgia and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. He first encountered Jesus through RUF at Georgia Southern University and has since served with RUF at the Savannah College of Art & Design and Appalachian State University. He is married to the incomparable Sara Jane and they have three daughters together (Georgia, Bonnie, and Rosie). Chris loves music of all kinds, playing drums adequately, and hunkering in the Pit long enough to eat breakfast and lunch. He's probably there right now if you want to drop by! Go Deacs!

Campus Staff

Slaton is from Birmingham, Alabama, and attended Wofford College for her undergraduate years. It was at Wofford where she fell in love with the ministry of RUF, and more importantly, was captured by the Gospel. Slaton has served with RUF at Wake Forest for two years now. She is thankful for the opportunity to serve the students at Wake. You can probably find her listening to a podcast on the Reynolda Trail if you need her!
