A bright future for a steadfast mission
It has always been true that the world needs global citizens and leaders marked by integrity, intellect and ingenuity. These are the unmistakable characteristics of individuals shaped in the context of a forward-thinking, faith-based community that has stood the test of culture and time.
As the flagship Christian liberal arts institution in the heart of New England, Gordon College is poised to prepare thoughtful contributors and change-makers for the cause of Christ in our world. Faith Rising is our charge.
In faith, we courageously rise to the challenge of our times.
In faith, we strategically pursue the opportunities ahead.
In faith, we eagerly walk toward the future God has for Gordon.
The five-year, comprehensive Faith Rising campaign will raise $130 million in gifts and pledges—a giant step of faith for Gordon. It will require the College’s resources, prayers and energy—and the powerful help and support of our entire community of alumni, parents, friends and foundations. We have rising faith that the same God who began a good work in us will allow us to continue and advance our foundational mission—both timeless and timely—to graduate men and women distinguished by intellectual maturity and Christian character, committed to lives of service and prepared for leadership worldwide. They are the very men and women this world needs.
