InterVarsity reaches students of fraternity (and sorority) row

“USA (MNN) — There are many college ministries reaching kids on the fringe, but what about outreach to the “in” crowd? Eric Holmer says InterVarsity Christian Fellowship believes reaching Greek life, or fraternities and sororities, is so important that they have established a ministry for that purpose. “Greek InterVarsity was created to reach out to this place that seemingly has it all together, but on the inside has a lot of needs, a lot of brokenness, and can often times be one of the darkest places on campus.” Even still, outreach can be tough. “Students in fraternities and sororities probably won’t ever step into a large group meeting on campus. They won’t go to church on a Sunday morning, but they will sit down with their fraternity or sorority brother or sister and have a spiritual conversation, read a Bible together, pray together, and do things that only in the relationship that exists in a fraternity or sorority they would do.” Greek IV encourages students to have one-on-one Bible studies with pledge sisters and brothers.
