If you’re a student at the University of Alaska Anchorage (UAA) searching for faith, friendship, and purpose during your college years, you don’t have to look far. THRIVE Anchorage is an official campus ministry at UAA, recognized as a student organization in 2024.

We exist to help students not just believe in God, but live fully as disciples of Jesus.

What We’re About

At THRIVE, you’ll find more than just meetings or events—you’ll find a spiritual family. Our mission is simple:

• Read and live out God’s Word in daily life
• Build authentic community where every student is known and loved
• Raise up leaders who make an impact on campus and beyond

We believe college is a defining season of life, and our vision is to see students grow in their faith, form deep friendships, and make a lasting difference for Christ.

Weekly Gatherings at UAA

Here’s how you can get connected on campus:

• Friday Night Devotionals – Worship, Bible teaching, games, and community at 7:30 PM in Rasmuson Hall 211
• Sunday Morning Services – Join us at 10:00 AM in Rasmuson Hall 101 for campus-based worship with Restored Church Anchorage
• Men’s & Women’s Midweek Bible Studies – Alternating Wednesdays for deeper discipleship and connection
• Personal Bible Studies – One-on-one, life-on-life discipleship that helps you grow as a follower of Jesus

Why THRIVE Matters

We know the college years can feel overwhelming, isolating, or aimless. THRIVE exists to give students a place where they can:

• Discover real hope in Jesus
• Build friendships that last beyond graduation
• Learn what the Bible says about living with purpose
• Be part of something bigger than themselves

This isn’t just a club—it’s a movement of students choosing to live boldly for Christ on campus.
