About ANEW

ANEW is a student-run movement, organized to network Adventist ministries on secular campuses in the Mid-Atlantic region. it is committed to train and equip Adventist students and young people to be missionaries on campus, proclaiming the Everlasting Gospel to everyone they come in contact with.

Since 2007, ANEW has held bi-annual conferences filled with Bible-based studies, workshops, and training. Throughout the year, ANEW focuses on establishing a growing network of campus ministries in the Mid-Atlantic that provides encouragement, support, and accountability in ministry for the students.

We currently hold two main events during the academic year: Our Annual Conference in the Fall at one of our member universities bringing together students from about 30 universities in the Mid-Atlantic region and a Network Leadership Summit in the Spring. All of ANEW's efforts are concentrated on spreading the vision of campus ministry and training student missionaries.
