Nicolas will be starting work with UCCF as Relay Worker in August 2025.
Nicolas is doing Relay in London, supporting the Christian Union in University College London.
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.
Nicolas says...
Hi, I'm Nicolas and I will be serving the Christian Union at the University College of London as a Relay Worker this year.
I joined the CU during my studies and I was newly baptised before I started my studies. I had no idea of the amazing work that God would do during my time there to the point that a few of my friends that I knew became Christians after they came to CU. I loved serving my CU, united with my brothers and sisters in our shared goal of giving the opportunity to all to hear the gospel for themselves.
As my Staff Workers, Philly and Rachel, invested in me, I would like to do the same for the students at UCL. In doing so, I hope that they too will have that same love and desire to work for the Lord's gospel so that every student who hears it may have the same gift and promise of life eternal that we all share in through belief in Jesus Christ.
I will be dependent on the Lord's provision during my time as a Relay Worker, as I can do nothing by myself. I would very much appreciate prayer for the UCL CU and myself. As this role is voluntary, I am looking to raise over £3000 to cover all my expenses throughout the year. Your financial support would be very helpful and I thank you for your generosity.
If you would like to stay updated with everything happening on my journey, you can sign up to receive my prayer letters by email. God bless!
Pray for Nicolas
Prayer is a vital part of supporting Nicolas’s work with Christian Unions. Here are some prayer points from Nicolas:
- Please pray that I may have wisdom and knowledge for every challenge I will face during the year.
- Please pray that the CU at UCL will be equipped for spreading the Lord's gospel with love and boldness.
- Please pray that the Holy Spirit will work to soften the hearts of those that will hear the gospel.
Partner with Nicolas
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.
