OUR VISION

Our Vision is to reach as many students as we can. To develop Christian Disciples in university campuses across Goleta/Isla Vista/Santa Barbara by:

  1. Calling students into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ

  2. Training them to become servant leaders

  3. Sending them out to serve God through the local church

  4. Encouraging the development of Christian community

CORE VALUES

COLLEGE STATION

There is a Station dedicated for our College students located in our Fellowship Area. Throughout the year, we hope to provide school supplies, study snacks, and everything else you need to succeed in your

academic pursuit.

All are welcome to donate supplies for our students to utilize. If you are a student attending our church, we welcome you take as needed. We encourage all our members to donate throughout the year

STUDY HALL

We strive to provide a safe yet supportive space for all students in our community to study. Our worship center is open to those who are looking for a quiet place to study for your midterms or finals. We'll even have snacks and drinks available for you! Please contact the church office or Pastor Martin if you have any questions or want to view the study hall schedule.

CORE GROUPS

Core groups are our weekly small group gatherings on Tuesday evenings. They are divided by class, and feature check-ins and fellowship activities

as well as a short Bible study. We are committed to growing closer to God and one another while also going on fun trips throughout the year!

Life groups are more personal groups focused on deep dives into scripture and complex theological topics. These change from semester to semester,

and meet at varying times. Stay tuned for our Fall 2025 offerings!

"I chose U.Me.IV at a time when I started to get interested at religion and the reason of being part of it, by pure curiosity. Church was very close to my place, I wanted to give it a try so I tried. I then met many kind and generous people in this place that I started to attend every Sunday morning service. I then was able to share one of my favorite gift (playing the guitar)! My most memorable moment was the first time I played for the church, I felt this kind of energy during that moment when I was honored and satisfied to give. I want to give thanks to every member of this community for sharing those moments with me, thanks to Wes and Matt for playing by my side and thank you all for being by my side before I ever knew it.
