The Christian faith is extremely important
to Jonathan Thie, and always has been.
That’s why it should come as no surprise that Thie joined Campus Crusade
for Christ when he first went off to college in 2001.
Passionate about his belief in Christ, Thie
joined Campus Crusade for Christ (often referred to as ‘Cru’). Cru’s mission statement is to share
Christianity with others, both on campus and throughout the rest of the world. For someone so passionate as Jonathan Thie,
Campus Crusade for Christ was the perfect opportunity.
Jonathan Thie was an active member of
Campus Crusade for Christ from 2001 to 2006, and then again in 2010, four years
after he graduated from South Dakota State University. Now, Jonathan Thie is involved in academics and
faith once again, working as Head Coach of the men’s tennis team at St. Thomas
More, a Catholic high school in South Dakota.
Jonathan Thie believes that his experience
at Campus Crusade for Christ during his college years was instrumental in
strengthening his faith in Christ.
Today, he’s a man who loves others, and loves serving them – at least
that’s always his aim. Jonathan Thie is passionate and dedicated to making a
difference in the world. His deepest
desire is to leave an impact on those around him, and to change the
circumstances of the less fortunate in the world.
If you’re a college student now, Jonathan Thie seriously
urges you to consider joining Campus
Crusade for Christ. For him, it was a
life-changing experience, and he knows that many others felt the same way about
it. Jonathan Thie believes that joining Campus Crusade for Christ can give you
more strength about your faith, as well as a strong network of fellow
Christians that you can have for support.
Even now, years later, Jonathan Thie is still friends with many of his
old Cru friends.
