University of Texas – San Antonio

Join us for Dinner + Discussion on Wednesdays at 7 PM, location TBD

RUF is a campus ministry for UTSA that seeks to love God, love others, and love the campus. We do this by welcoming students, declaring the message of Jesus, providing them an opportunity to grow in grace, and encouraging them to serve the campus and church. Whether you have been a Christian all your life, are struggling with doubts, are unconvinced of Christianity, or anywhere in between we want to walk with you during these crucial years of college. Connect with us and we'd love to walk with you!

Meet Our Team

Lee Wright

Lee Wright

Campus Minister

Lee & Sarah Wright are native Texans, from Granbury and Amarillo, respectively, and are excited to work with students at UTSA! Lee & Sarah both graduated from Covenant Seminary in 2012 with Masters of Divinity and Masters of Arts in Counseling degrees. Before moving to San Antonio in 2020, Lee was the RUF campus minister at UCF in Orlando, FL for 6 years.

One of the surprising ways the Wrights have seen God at work is seeing the impact of hospitality for students. Serving a large campus, the Wrights have welcomed small groups of students in their home weekly for several years now. The Wright children always enjoy time with their college friends, and students being in the Wright’s home seems to ease the ache of anonymity on campus.

Lee would love to share stories about God at Work through RUF.
