In 1972 in a small town in Mississippi a pivotal event occurred. Three churches in Hattiesburg decided they could no longer ignore the spiritual needs of the students at the University of Southern Mississippi, so they combined resources and hired a man to serve as their minister to that campus. Thus was born Reformed University Fellowship.

RUF came to Lehigh University in 1998. David Green had just finished his Masters of Divinity degree, and for the next ten years he and Ruth served the students at Lehigh through Bible studies, counseling, and hospitality. In 2008 David was appointed Area Coordinator for the Northeast , and Scott Mitchell came to Lehigh.

Scott is a graduate of Texas A&M University in Civil Engineering. He received his Masters of Divinity degree at Westminster Theological Seminary in Dallas. He and his wife Bonnie have moved to Bethlehem and are eager to continue the RUF ministry at Lehigh University.

We want to share this ministry with you! On the Lehighlights page you can find the newsletters we send out to supporters about four times a year. The Messages page provides links to many of the messages we present to the students. Other pages provide more detailed information about RUF and the campus minister. And if you click on Campus Website you will be transferred to that location to see up-to-date information about activities on campus.
