a place for students
As a Christian church that meets on the University of Arizona campus, Damascus Road has several unique offerings for students to meet them where they are at on their journey of faith over these next few years.
-
Damascus Road is a non-denominational Christian church on the University of Arizona campus and the most accessible to students searching for a place to worship and grow in their faith. Join us each Sunday at 10:30am on campus at the McClelland Park building as we gather for worship as a church community. Just come down Park Ave and follow the signs!
-
Join us for one of our Bible studies for students on the University of Arizona campus. We meet throughout the week and across campus so every student can find the group that will be the right fit for them. Talk to one of our campus ministers on Sunday and they will help you connect with one.
-
Students at Damascus Road have opportunities to serve and lead in a community that is more than just their peers. From running services behind the scenes to leading worship up front, students can be trained to serve in many areas that fit their giftings and passions.
With Damascus Road, students can also serve their community in significant ways. Whether that is through our on campus Water Table where we offer cool, fresh water to thirsty students or our monthly Mobile Food Bank where we partner with Caring Ministries to distribute boxes of food to our campus community, students can make an impact around the University of Arizona and Tucson.
-
After their first year, students can apply to Damascus Road's student internship. As a part of the internship, students will be discipled in a one-on-one mentorship, trained to lead, and develop new skills that are useful for both ministry and life. This is not just for students interested in professional ministry, but is great for any student to grow in their walk with Jesus and mature into a spiritually healthy adult.
-
Students can join Damascus Road on spiritual retreats in the fall and spring designed to help students on their walk with Jesus. Students also have opportunities to travel on service trips to places like Mexico and Honduras!
In the fall, join us for Momentum, a 24 hour retreat where we dive into sharing our faith in a loving and winsome manner with others as we kick off the school year. In January, join us for Katalyst, our spiritual formation retreat where we focus on cultivating practices of prayer, silence, solitude, and scripture reading as we anchor ourselves in the love of God to begin our new year.
Join us for a service trip over Veterans Day weekend each November to serve with our friends in Hermosillo, MX. Over Spring Break, join us for an extended trip to serve with missionaries across the US or as far as Central America. -
At Damascus Road, students are discipled one-on-one, as we walk alongside them, helping them to grow in spiritual maturity. Together we seek to practice life in the way of Jesus and grow in our faith.
Furthermore, Damascus Road is a cross-generational community, giving students access to spiritual and professional mentors of various ages, life stages, professions, and experiences to help students prepare for faith and life faith beyond graduation.
