Ben & Sarah Sanders, Executive Directors
_<\/h3>\n

Ben and Sarah Sanders met in 1980 at ASU as students. In 1981, as part of a student prayer group, they dreamed, prayed, and journaled about the need for a \u201cStudent Ministry Center\u201d for Christian ASU students. They envisioned a place that would be close to campus, would include a coffee-house, and places for students to study, worship, have meetings and relax. 35 years later their prayers and dreams came to life with the opening of Campus Christian Center.<\/p>\n

Ben and Sarah are the Executive Directors of C3. They attend Church on Mill Southern Baptist Church and Living Faith Anglican Church. They love the scripture from Acts 2:1, \u201cthey were all together in one place\u201d which precedes the great outpouring of the promised Holy Spirit. Their prayer is that through bringing together the many Christian ministries at C3 in shared vision and partnership, the Lord will pour out His Spirit and do great and mighty things on the ASU campus.<\/p>\n
