Located at 19 Vandeventer Avenue, The Robert L. Melrose Center for Christian Leadership serves Christian Union's ongoing work to develop Christian leaders at Princeton. 

The Melrose Center provides offices for Christian Union's ministry faculty and serves as a home base for alumni and student activities, including Bible courses, leadership training, mentoring appointments, prayer, and Reunions gatherings.

The building, just one block from campus, is a Princeton landmark, an 18th century center-hall Colonial originally built on Nassau Street in 1780 and moved to its current location in 1887. 

The Center honors the memory of Robert Lumley Melrose, Princeton Class of 1954.

Dear friends and partners,

As we wrap up this year of ministry, we do so with praise to God for his faithfulness, kindness, goodness, and grace to us. We have had a rich and full year with the Princeton students, and we count it a blessing to share some highlights with you – our ministry partners through prayer and generous giving.

The Reunions 2017 Annual Brunch hosted by Princeton Faith and Action (PFA), the Christian student organization resourced by Christian Union, will be listed under the student organization name in the University's Reunions schedule.

We continue to be grateful for your prayers, encouragement, and financial partnership with our ministry here at Princeton University with Christian Union.  Thank you for your kind words, notes, and thoughts from a distance; we value very much your friendship as we seek to make Christ known on the campus of Princeton.  Below, please find a few highlights from our past month of ministry, as well as some things we’re looking forward to in the weeks ahead.

Greetings friends and partners!

It is with great joy and gratitude that I write to you with this report on the past month of ministry here on the campus of Princeton University.  By God’s grace, we have seen our healthiest and most vibrant month so far this year; I’ll share some highlights in the space below.

Dear friends and ministry partners,

As you read this report, the Princeton ministry faculty, as well as around 150 Princeton undergraduate students, will be away at Camp of the Woods in Speculator, New York, for the annual “Ski Safari” winter trip.  We are thrilled with the response we have gotten from students for this trip, and are excited that many students who do not yet know Jesus as Savior and Lord will be joining us as well.

Dear Friends and Partners,

As we draw near to the end of 2016, we pause to give thanks and praise to God for his goodness and grace to us during these past months – particularly in our gospel ministry here on the campus of Princeton University.  Allow me to share a few highlights from the fall months, as well as a few ways that you can be praying for our ministry in the month ahead.

Dear friends,

Thank you for your continued prayers, support, and encouragement to all of us who labor for Jesus Christ on the campus of Princeton University. As you know, Christian Union’s ministry at Princeton has a goal of developing Christian leaders to transform culture; we seek to never lose sight of this goal, as we teach students the Bible, train and mentor young men and women, and do our best to equip them for lives of service, leadership, and influence in our world for the glory of Jesus Christ and the good of all people in Him. Below, I offer you a few brief updates on various aspects of our ministry at Princeton.

Dear friends,

We are grateful for your steady prayers, support, and encouragement during these weeks as we launch into a new and exciting season of ministry on the campus of Princeton University. Even as I write this report, we are concluding our second full week of ministry with classes in session; I'm happy to share with you the following highlights from the past month.

Greetings from Princeton!

We are under two weeks away from our annual Pre-Retreat, which will mark the official start of our fall season of ministry at the university.  This particular retreat is an opportunity for some of our core leaders to gather together before classes start.  We want them to be refreshed spiritually through biblical teaching and worship, connect relationally through the fellowship a retreat affords, and prepare to approach the fall season with outward-looking hearts and minds for the sake of inviting freshmen into Christian community.  We would ask for your prayers for a powerful and encouraging time away together!
