CUs across Great Britain have spent the last few months warmly welcoming new students and helping them to settle in and explore something of Jesus for themselves. They've run events to introduce them to the gospel, answered their questions and opened the Bible with them. What better way to end the term than by helping them consider the reality of the Christmas story through carol services, Christmas meals and other celebrations?
This December, we’re praying that many will be convicted of the truth they’ve been hearing.
Will you pray with us?
