Launch provides a variety of Bible studies at their weekly Thursday Night get togethers to meet students where they are at and to build up and strengthen students in their faith and journey to faith. Some of these studies include Investigating Christianity, Characters of the Bible, a Freshman Study through James, Jesus on Leadership, and a Senior Exit Strategy study.
Launch provides weekly opportunities for students to learn how to share the Gospel and their faith with others and then go out onto campus to have Gospel conversations with others at Purdue.

Launch is involved in a wide variety of intramural sports such as basketball, softball, soccer, innertube water polo, and more! This is a great opportunity to build up friendships between Launch embers through sports as well as being able to be a light and share Jesus with free agents (Purdue students who are not a part of Launch) who join the team.

Launch has connections with 5 international missionaries to train students up in long term support for missionaries and provides a wide variety of mission trip opportunities for students to participate in as they explore missions and God’s calling on their life as they go out into the world and into their future careers.

Purdue is school to nearly 10,000 international students from around the world. Launch plans many events to help engage international students and get them plugged into a Christian community that seeks to share Jesus with these students, introduce them to American culture, and learn more about the individual’s culture. Some of these events involve Fall Festival, an American Wedding Experience, Movie Nights, an International Potluck, and more!
