About Us
Seek is a college campus movement designed to promote intimate group worship at participating schools. It was born at UVa by students who saw a need to unite the various Christian fellowships at their school. After a successful worship event in the Spring of 2006, it became a semesterly worship event focused on uniting the Christian community in intimate worship together.
In a time when people see our generation as one of the most rebellious, there are hundreds of students at each school seeking God and desiring to worship Him. Seek works to unite these students in strong community- not to replace established fellowships, but to bring people together to worship God! Seek fosters community in two ways at UVa: a semesterly large group worship event and a weekly Saturday Night Prayer Room.
Semesterly Worship Event
Seek is a unique experience because it is set up differently from most weekly fellowship meetings or church services. The events are solely devoted to worship, no talk, no service, and no true schedule. It is set up for worship, with no set number of songs or time to end; it is a time to go deeper with God. For many people this setting and style is new, and as such the first few songs may be uncomfortable, but eventually as people begin to worship, God moves and the many fellowships there come together as one in worship.
Weekly Prayer Room
The Saturday Night Prayer Room was born in Spring 2009 out of a humbling revelation from the Lord: most Christian students don’t really know the joy of intimacy with the Lord or the gift of communing with Him, thus they don’t love to pray. So, we created an atmosphere where we could re-learn how to adore the Lord in worship, receive His heart for our generation, cry out for spiritually blind friends and classmates, and lay down our own lives for His Kingdom. If we are to reach a generation, it will be the intimacy of the prayer room that stirs our hearts into motion. Different fellowships lead acoustic worship each week, and everyone is welcome to pray, worship, read, journal, draw, dance, or just sit in the Lord’s presence.
