Each summer, UCCF CUs (Christian Unions) send students out around the UK and the world on Summer Teams.
This year, 16 Summer Teams are planned the world over along with four International Student Outreach Teams which will take place around the UK, reaching out to international students who come to study English. Each team and country visited is unique, but activities may include leading Bible studies for Christians and non-Christians, English lessons, running sports camps, doing practical work, carrying out surveys, or even running campus missions. A key element is meeting with local student groups and encouraging them in their evangelism. Below is a taster of this year’s trips.
Bournemouth ISO (International Student Outreach) “Bournemouth is brilliant! Last year we were there for two weeks and met students from 40 countries. We had 100 attending meetings each night and five students from three continents became Christians. I get really excited about doing it – it’s all the best things about doing work with international students!” CUSW (Christian Union Staff Worker) Kenny Robertson
