Our Story
In the summer of 2025, a team of staff moved to the Midwest with a vision of starting an Acts 2 church in East Lansing. For many of us, college was a transformative time. Jesus’ all-consuming call grabbed a hold of our hearts as we experienced the power of God’s word and the richness of a biblical community. It’s an experience we want to pass on to others so we plant churches in college towns!
At Anchor, you’ll find a wide range of people from those who have grown up in the church to those who are learning about Christianity for the first time. Regardless of your religious background, we want to welcome all of you here. Our mission is to create a community where college students can grow in their faith and build meaningful relationships with others. Join us for worship services, small group gatherings, and other events throughout the week!
Meet the Leadership
Hello!
Leo and Corinne Chick are the leads of Anchor Christian Fellowship at MSU. During their college years at UC Berkeley, they gave their lives to Christ and caught the vision of sharing the gospel with other college students. For 11 years, they served in ministries in California at UC Berkeley and Santa Barbara, and then in 2025, God led them to East Lansing to start a fellowship here at Michigan State University (go Green go White!). Here, their hope is that many students would personally know Jesus, and that their lives would be forever changed as theirs were in college.
