InterVarsity
Christian
Fellowship began at the
University of Cambridge,
England back in 1877. Over 120 years later, there are now more than 700
chapters of InterVarsity across the country.
The United States chapters, along with other student groups in over 100
countries, including Canada, the United Kingdom, Singapore, make up IFES.
IFES (The International Fellowship of Evangelical Students) literally
stretches around the world.
The vision of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship is encompassed in many
areas, such as:
- Evangelism
- Spiritual Formation
- The Church
- Human Relationships
- Righteousness
- Vocational Stewardship
- World Evangelism

These Biblical values help InterVarsity toward its goals. To build
collegiate fellowships, develop disciples who embody these values, and
engage the campus in all its ethnic diversity with the gospel of Jesus
Christ.
InterVarsity is an evangelical Christian fellowship with the following
theological distinctives:
- The unique Divine inspiration, entire trustworthiness and
authority of the Bible.
- The Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- The necessity and efficacy of the substitutionary death of
Jesus Christ for the redemption of the world, and the historic fact of His
bodily resurrection.
- The presence and power of the Holy Spirit in the work of
regeneration.
- The expectation of the personal return of our Lord Jesus
Christ.
