CU mission encouragements

Anglia Ruskin CU reaching out to passing students.

Christian Unions (CUs) have seen an increase in the number of students professing faith during their mission weeks.

In February, as they do each Spring, nearly 100 CUs across the UK held mission weeks on university campuses – a series of themed evangelistic events spread out over five days. While CUs have often seen students profess faith in the days and months following mission weeks, this year they saw many make a commitment during the weeks themselves.

By mid-March, the University and Colleges Christian Fellowship (UCCF) had heard stories of over 20 students coming to faith during a CU mission week across Surrey, Bath, Aberdeen, Manchester, Exeter, Durham, Birmingham, and Treforest.
