Welcome to our university site!

CPC has a long history of providing fun and meaningful programming for ISU students.  In fact, CPC was founded in 1911 (this year is our hundred birthday!) with the primary purpose of ministering to local students.  We encourage spiritual growth through uplifting worship, heart-felt conversations, informative Bible studies, pastoral care and refreshing retreats.  We like to think that our congregation is open, loving and relevant and that you'll feel at home here. 

Just last fall we finished a large renovation of the Westgate Student Center which is located on the second floor of our church.  It has a large kitchen, a comfy lounge, study tables, and free wireless.  It's a great place to study, grab a snack, take a nap, or just chat with friends.  It is open Sundays through Fridays, 8 am - 10 pm.  Most of our activities take place here.

We offer several activities throughout the week.  Sundays, after the 11:15 am contemporary worship service, we enjoy a free, home-cooked lunch.  We then regather at 6pm on Sunday evenings for another free dinner and a program (games, outings, discussions, etc.).  On Mondays we have a Bible study at 6 pm.  Every other Tuesday at 12 pm we meet in Campustown for lunch - at either "Jeff's Pizza" or "Es Tas."  On Wednesday afternoons, from 4 pm - 6 pm, student can volunteer with children at our church's afterschool program - "Club CPC."  In addition, we offer a overnight retreat each semester, a spring break mission trip, events with international students, an "adopt-a-student" program, movies, etc.  The best way to stay informed about what is happening with our university ministry group is to join our Facebook group ("Collegiate Presbyterian Church (CPC) University Ministry") and check out our calendar below.
