Students

Seekers began in 1970 with the vision of one student. Since then we have empowered thousands of students from different denominations and cultural backgrounds to run Seekers on their schools. In 1990, the Equal Access Act was passed, guaranteeing the rights of students to create religious clubs on campus.  Yet, Seekers had already had success in this arena for two decades?  What was (and is) our secret?

Seekers is student-run and student-initiated.  While adults may be involved in encouraging and empowering students, students must carry the work on campus.  This has been our model since 1970, and even if the law was changed, it will always be our model.

We believe that this model grants the best opportunity for development of student leaders and the growth of students’ faith.   God rewards those who diligently seek Him. When we give students opportunity to seek the Lord, He does show up in their lives. And their faith in cemented in these experiences.

So, if you are a student interested in starting a Seekers Christian Fellowship, send us an email or Facebook message and we will connect you. Come and attend one of our borough Monthly Training Seminars to understand our model and meet other Seekers students.  We will guide you on the process from there.

If you are a pastor, school faculty or parent interested in getting some young people involved with Seekers, get in contact with us also!  Please remember that Seekers has had free access to work with, empower and encourage young believers to run chartered Seekers Christian Fellowships in their schools, because we are fully committed to a student-run model of campus ministry. We have thrived in the largest public school system in the United States because we have integrity and our student-run model has been vetted multiple times by the New York City Department of Education. Our staff can also come to your church and present the ministry of Seekers with other Seekers leaders.
