THE CLYDE DUPIN CRUSADE TEAM

A Clyde Dupin Crusade consisted of hundreds of God's people working together to make Christ known in the community. The goals of a Crusade are to win the lost to Christ, to bring renewal to the believer and to activate the inactive church member.

There are many small cities where a prominent evangelist like Billy Graham may never be able to conduct crusades. We believe God brought our Team together to minister in many of these communities. Our Team has always been committed to contemporary evangelism, controlled by the authority of the Scripture and constrained by The Great Commission.
