‘God still sees us even though we worship in secret.’
In rural 17th-century Japan, a native Christian convert assures two newly arrived Jesuit priests on a mission from Portugal that his faith, and the faith of his fellow villagers packed into the dimly lit hut, is fervent and resilient, even in their impoverished and persecuted state.
UCCF: summer travels

Each summer UCCF sends teams of Christian
Union (CU) students from all over Britain as
a tangible expression of one of the core values
of being generous in world mission.
Some teams remain in British towns working alongside local churches in their outreach
to communities, while others travel further
afield. During June and July this year, eight
UCCF summer teams headed to places like
Moldova, Serbia, Ukraine and Slovakia, to
join alongside the CU movements in those
countries. Our prayer is that God has used
these summer teams powerfully to bring the
nations to praise him.
