STUDENTS HEAR THE RUMOUR

Students present the Bill Edgar Jazz Trio as part of the London city-wide student mission

Over 100 students responded to the gospel at a UCCF city-wide student mission entitled ‘Rumour Has It’.

The Prohibition Era-themed week of events, which took place in late January, saw around 20 CUs from across London team up with 15 churches to put on a week of evangelistic events.

Students dressed up in 1920s jazz/Great Gatsby-style costumes and served (non-alcoholic) drinks. The Bill Edgar Trio provided music and entertainment for a jazz café. Bill is not only a great pianist but also Professor of Apologetics at Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia. The gospel was preached by UCCF director, Richard Cunningham. Around 300 students came to All Souls Church, the central London venue, each evening, with many more attending local campus-based lunchtime dialogues.
