Today is Give:24—our one-day opportunity to invest in life-changing formation. 🙌

At Jessup, students are stepping into more than a degree—they’re stepping into who they’re called to be. Your generosity helps create a place where they are truly known, deeply mentored, and intentionally equipped to live and lead with courage, integrity, and faith.

Because of you, students are growing in confidence, discovering their purpose, and being sent out to make a difference in their communities and beyond. This is more than a moment—it’s a movement of transformation that lasts far beyond their time on campus.

Be part of the story. Be part of what God is doing.

“I wasn’t just looking for a school. I was looking for a place that would shape who I am becoming.”

At Jessup, students aren’t just earning degrees—they are being formed in faith, mentored in community and equipped to follow Christ wherever He leads. Through a Christ-centered education, students grow spiritually while preparing to serve others with integrity and purpose.
From aviation training to future careers in law and public service, Jessup students are learning to lead with faith and honor Christ in the work they do and the lives they touch.

Your support makes this possible. Every gift helps form students who will carry their faith into the world.

This is what Jessup does. This is Give:24. 🙌

Jessup family, we are entering a new season of leadership.

After fifteen years of faithful service as President, Dr. John Jackson will transition into the role of Chancellor as he prepares for retirement in 2026. In this new role he will continue to support donor engagement and key initiatives that strengthen Jessup’s future.

The Board of Trustees has appointed Dr. Parnell M. Lovelace, Jr. to serve as Interim President. Dr. Lovelace has been serving as our Vice President of Community and brings a deep love for the Lord, a passion for students, and rich pastoral and academic experience.

Please join us in praying for Dr. Jackson, Dr. Lovelace, and our entire community as we continue to pursue Christ-centered higher education that impacts our region, nation, and world.
