CSCC exists to glorify Christ on the University of South Carolina campus with the lives of students through worship, Bible study, relationships, and Godly social interaction. We are united in Christ but diverse in ethnicity, interests, nationalities, and backgrounds. CSCC's intent is to be counter-cultural as we emphasize the love, faith, and lifestyle found in God's Word. Beliefs are sought in the Bible only, rather than denominational traditions or any other worldviews. Regardless of your church affiliation, or even if you don't have one, if you are a Christian and want to grow in your faith and understanding of the Word, or if you're not a Christian and want to learn about God and His salvation you will enjoy CSCC. See below for more info. God bless you and Go Gamecocks!

SPECIAL EVENTS DURING THE YEAR Tailgates Before Gamecock Football During football season, Student Church sometimes hosts tailgates before games in the Roost front parking lot across from the soccer stadium, under the trees.  Tailgate dates and times are chosen as football times are announced. Fall Retreat CSCC meets up with other campus ministries from the Carolinas (Clemson, UNC, NC State, Appalachian State, etc.) for a weekend of spiritual renewal, fellowship, and praise to God. This year we will be going to South Mountain Christian Center in the foothills of North Carolina near Forest City. The retreat this year will be the weekend of September 11-13 and the cost will be $50 per student. Registration information will be provided in August. Make plans to join us! Spring Semester Retreats CSCC usually has one or two retreats during the second semester of each school-year. We will usually have a Winter Retreat in February at Palmetto Bible Camp in the upstate mountains of South Carolina and a Spring Retreat in April at PBC or possibly another location. Local Missions & Outreach Students in CSCC conduct various outreach efforts during the school-year such as serving food to homeless citizens of Columbia and spending time with children at a local shelter. These efforts are often organized and implemented by the students themselves. Mission Trips Mission Trips are planned some school years depending on student interest. In the past we have traveled to Bangor, Maine; Miami, Florida; and Pascagoula, Mississippi to do things like feed the homeless, evangelistic outreach for a newly planted church, encouraging orphans, and hurricane rebuilding efforts.
