Freshmen Fellowship

Easy to slip into—whether it’s your first time or tenth.

RUF Freshman Fellowship is a place to connect with other freshmen, build deeper friendships, hear a thought-provoking message from Scripture, and share the ups and downs of the year with people who care.

Freshman Fellowship

Designed with you and your friends in mind.

Freshman Fellowship is for the convinced to grow in their faith, the curious to explore faith, and the skeptic to bring their questions.

Join us one Tuesday night in Tate Room 473 at the top of the staircase. Don’t worry—you’ll see the crowd and hear the chatter.

Students from UNG and Athens Tech are welcome, and there is free, easy parking at Tate for you!

Welcome to Athens, #UGA30 and transfers!

A shortcut to some of the places we love.

Now that you’re in town and moved in, the best welcome gift we could think to give you was our love of this great city!

Use our guide to discover golden study spots, hidden-gem places to run, and hole-in-the-wall restaurants you have to try. We hope you enjoy them. Better yet, come by RUF and get to know us so we can enjoy these places together.
