Christian students are sharing encouragements following on from university missions which were supported by the organisation Christians in Sport (CiS).

Grace, a student leader at Exeter, reflected on the joy of seeing her peers engage with the message of Jesus. “We’ve loved having Graham Daniels [General Director of CiS] opening up the book of Luke during our evening events,” she said. “It’s been a real encouragement seeing many students come along to hear the gospel for the first time, through an invite from Christian friends or just by picking up a flyer.”

Durham student Will, who ran their events week, shared a similar story. “We’ve seen so many people coming to hear about Jesus, questioning what He means for their lives.”
