Dinner
Give Night is Ignite's annual fundraising dinner to share stories of life transformation at UofL with significant leaders in the community.
The need for a vibrant Christian community is more important than ever as students experience loneliness, depression, and pervasive spiritual darkness on campus. The mission of Ignite is to help UofL students take their first step or next step with Jesus. We train college students to become resilient disciple-makers so they can lead in local churches and the community.
Give Night is an opportunity to make a Kingdom impact at UofL by investing in our disciple-making culture to ignite the future of the campus, the city and the Church.
Registration is required.
Date: Thursday, October 19th

Our Story
Ignite started when 12 UofL students began praying for campus. We gathered in a living room in Old Louisville every Tuesday for prayer and worship. Soon the gathering grew to 60 students and became too large for the house.
After praying for a new space on campus, we started meeting in Floyd theater at UofL to accommodate more people. We met for two weeks on campus before Covid 19 and we pivoted to meet the spiritual needs of students in new ways.
When we began meeting in person in person during the Fall of 2020, we started gathering in a an old pizza restaurant at Cardinal Towne. This space allowed us to host late night pancakes, freshman dinner, small groups and weekly worship. One year later we had already outgrown the pizza kitchen and started gathering in a larger space in the same building.
We currently reach over 150 students with our weekly programs. We're looking forward to helping more UofL students take their first step or next step with Jesus.
