If you want a long history of Christian work at university, and a wide variety of local churches to choose from, then Queen's campus in Stockton is not the place to go.

However, in the last five years the Christian Union has grown from non-existence to one of the fastest growing groups in the country. Their aim is simple: to proclaim the gospel to as many students as possible. God has honoured their work and people are sitting up and taking notice; not just their fellow students, but other CUs in the North East too.

Dave Birks, evangelism rep for Durham University CU, says: 'With so little support and financial backing what Stockton CU has achieved in the last couple of years is amazing. I wish all CUs had the passion for evangelism that they have.'
