Freya Whiteley

Freya will be starting work with UCCF as Relay Worker in August 2025.

Freya is doing Relay in Swansea, supporting the Christian Union in Swansea University.

Relay is a ten-month discipleship, training and mission programme run by UCCF, a charity which aims to give every student in Great Britain an opportunity to hear and respond to the good news about Jesus Christ.

Relay Workers equip, resource and encourage student Christian Unions whilst being discipled and trained by a member of UCCF staff.

Freya says...

Hi, my name is Freya!

From August 2025 to June 2026 I'll be serving as a Relay Worker with the organisation UCCF in Swansea University. I'll be supporting the Christian Union as students seek to share Jesus on campus - leading Bible studies, mentoring others, and helping with outreach on the campus.

I'll also be studying biblical theology through the Relay training programme, deepening my own relationship with God and being equipped for lifelong mission.

This year is fully volunteer-based, so I'm raising support to make it possible. I'd love your partnership through prayer, encouragement, or giving as I step into this exciting season of ministry.

Pray for Freya

Prayer is a vital part of supporting Freya’s work with Christian Unions. Here are some prayer points from Freya:

  • Pray that I would grow in intimacy with God through the Relay training, personal study, and service, remaining rooted in His Word and guided by His Spirit throughout the year.
  • Pray that God would use me to encourage and support CU students well - that I'd serve with humility and wisdom, and help create a culture that points others to Jesus.
  • Pray for God's provision as I raise support, and for peace and trust as I step into a year of new challenges, opportunities, and growth.

Partner with Freya

It costs on average £8,000–12,000 to cover the living and ministry expenses of a Relay Worker.

Having a team of people who partner financially and in prayer with Relay Workers means that they can:

  • Encourage CU students in their faith in the Lord Jesus.
  • Give biblically-grounded answers to students exploring Christianity.
  • Support CUs as they seek to give every student the opportunity to hear and respond to the gospel.
