Sarah Negron
Sarah Negron
Campus Minister
My Story | I grew up knowing of God through family and church but came to know him relationally in my middle school years after starting to attend my
church’s youth group. I then began serving in the church starting with the children’s ministry to youth ministry to young adults ministry and have been a
worship leader since high school. I decided to get baptized and make an official commitment to follow God at 12 years old. I’ve faced many tribulations
growing up, but battling depression from a young age through all of it was the greatest one. In 2019, I experienced complete freedom, victory and true joy true Christ. I still serve in ministry in my church but felt that God was calling me to do ministry full time outside of the church as well. Having grown up in various multi-cultural settings, God placed a fascination and appreciation in me from a young age for different cultures/peoples. After going on a mission trip to Cambodia with my church at the age of 15, God confirmed to me that my calling was to do mission work specifically with people from different cultures. I went on to receive my Bachelor’s in Anthropology, the study of people and culture, believing that this educational background would assist me well in my calling; using it to bridge the gap between Christianity/the Church and the world. I knew
that working with IFI was an obedient action step God wanted me to take in the direction of ministry based on the truths that He has revealed to me about my calling; which include showing God’s love to people from different cultures and backgrounds.
Campus Ministry at IFI | The vision and mission of IFI is to see God’s love extended globally in partnership with spiritually vibrant international students through the life-changing hospitality and friendship we offer. As a Campus minister, I will demonstrate the love of Christ by welcoming international students and meeting their felt needs. I will build friendships and share life together with them. As I do this, I will communicate the gospel
in both word and deed, one-on-one and in group Bible discussions. I will disciple and equip them to return
home as both faithful disciples and disciple-makers. I will also train them to connect with their communities
through volunteer service. These highly influential scholars are often returning to “closed” countries and can have an immediate impact. They know the language and culture and have built-in relationships with their fellow nationals. We have the unique opportunity to further God’s kingdom in partnership with them.
