CRU


We are the Dewey’s, Joe, Courtney, and Sonshine, and we serve the Lord as a family through the ministry of Cru. Within Cru we minister to college students on 13 college campuses in NE Minnesota and NW Wisconsin in a region called the Greater Twin Ports. God has specifically prepared and gifted each one of us for this ministry and has given us a special calling to be a part of His work amongst young people.  

As an engineer, Joe gained solution driven mindset, which God is now using to help him actively point students to Christ. Although his college years were spent in rebellion, God is redeeming his failures and making them  strengths and He seeks out many lost believers struggling through their college years.  

Courtney is passionate about seeing people come to Christ. As a freshman in college God opened her heart’s eyes to the truth of the Gospel. In leaving her broken identity behind, she goes forth with an acute awareness for those who are just as lost as she was. With the healing power of the Holy Spirit she is connecting one individual at a time to the love of Christ.

Sonshine…well, she is sunshine, bright, warm, attractive and full of life! Her name is comes from Matthew 5:16, “Let you light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”
