Explore your ministry calling.

Cultivate

You are not alone.

Pursue is an event for high school juniors and seniors to explore ministry as a career path and cultivate a like-minded community. Students will connect with college students, ministry professors, and Christian ministry leaders to learn, pray, worship, and discuss this specific type of Kingdom Work. These events are available to be hosted by CIY Initiative Partners.

Investigate

Explore where your passions and God’s heart align.

Each summer CIY sees 2,000+ students answer a call to commit their life to vocational ministry. We are thrilled to partner with Bible colleges and Christian universities around the country to give these students a unique opportunity to investigate that calling.

Activate

Discover practical next steps to follow your calling.

Birthed at Johnson University in 2018, the Pursue Conference has activated over 200 high school students to take the next step into a life of ministry. In the fall of 2024, three brand new Pursue locations will expand this movement across the country. There is an urgent need for church ministry leaders. Answer the call today.
