Equipping students to live as disciples of Jesus, through service and discipleship
The Office of Service and Discipleship equips and empowers APU students to faithfully pursue God and participate in God’s transformative work in the world through intentional service and discipleship opportunities. OSD is a place where your being and your doing can thrive in relationship with God, your understanding of yourself, your interactions with others, and this grand world God created for us. We believe that service and discipleship are critical to our faith as we aim to embody Jesus’ commands to “Be my disciple” and “Follow me.”
As one of the Four Cornerstones at Azusa Pacific University, service is at the heart of our local and international outreach, missions, and service-learning endeavors. The university desires to see the service experience cultivate a deeper relationship with Christ, develop a greater sense of community, and model scholarship put into practice.
