Matt and Kim O’Brien work with Cru (formerly Campus Crusade for Christ) on the Boise State University (BSU) campus. Cru was started by Bill and Vonette Bright at the UCLA campus in 1951 and has been present at Boise State for over 45 years. Matt and Kim lead a team of Cru staff and students who are committed to taking the gospel of Jesus Christ to Boise State’s 21,000 students. They seek to develop healthy Christ-followers who walk by faith, communicate their faith, and multiply their faith. Kim grew up in Minden and graduated from Douglas High School. She was part of Hilltop in its early days. Matt and Kim have served with Cru since June 1990. Matt is also the Cru National Director for ten western states and travels extensively to colleges and universities in those states.
