Princeton Evangelical Fellowship
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Princeton Evangelical Fellowship is a non-denominational Christian ministry on the campus of Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey. It was founded by the Reverend Donald Fullerton in 1931, after health troubles prevented his return to mission work in Afghanistan, and consisted primarily of small Bible studies under his more than forty years as director of the work. Following the introduction of coeducation to Princeton in 1969 and the retirement of Dr. Fullerton (the recipient of an honorary doctorate from Grace Seminary in Winona Lake, Indiana) in the mid-seventies, the work continued under the 26-year-long directorship of an alumnus of the fellowship, Wayne Wever. In recent years leadership has passed to a third director, William (Bill) C. Boyce, Princeton class of 1979, and the full-time employed staff has expanded to ten, all of whom are Princeton graduates. The activities of the PEF consist principally in a weekly large group worship service, Bible studies and one-on-one discipleship. The fellowship is recognized by the university, having associate chaplaincy status and maintaining an office in Murray-Dodge Hall.
