The vision for F&WM's Workplace Worship Nights is to create a venue where marketplace Christians can meet each other and meet God together in worship. Together, we will learn how to honor God at work, encourage our brothers and sisters in Christ, and love our coworkers the way Jesus would if he had our jobs.

This groundbreaking partnership between Faith & Work Movement and UT Austin McCombs Christian Fellowship is designed to ignite and equip the next generation: inspiring college fellowships to sustain their passion for Christ, sharpen their leadership, and boldly carry their faith from campus all the way into the marketplace.
