‘My church life is what makes my university experience. I have burst the student-bubble and met people of all ages who inspire, encourage and love me. Jumping into a church has made me grow as a person into a life passionate for knowing Jesus and making him known in everything I do.’ Rachel, Winchester Uni

'Getting routed in a church at university had been extremely helpful in all aspects of my life. Having the opportunity to grow in my faith and pretty much find a new family has been invaluable.' Rhondell, Derby Uni.

'The church that I now attend ran a Student Alpha course at my Uni, and a Christian friend of mine, who was on the same course as me invited me to attend the Alpha course and see what I made of it. That was the beginning for me, the first step on a journey that has changed every belief I ever held, and has changed every aspect of my life for the better.' Marcus, Bucks New Uni.

And students are already linking up to find churches when they leave for uni this year. Bring on 2015!
