What’s On
Sunday Mornings
Sundays at 10am
We love meeting together as a church family to hear from God in his word and encourage one another to live and speak for Jesus. New people are always welcome.
Find out more about Sunday mornings
at Moorlands here.
Real Food
Sundays at 5-8pm
At Real Food we gather together to hear teaching on an area of the Christian life such as Prayer or Relationships. After that we share a meal together and then go into small groups to study the Bible. Real Food takes place on Sunday evenings during student term time.
This year our first and second year students are studying the book of Romans and our third year students are doing a Bible Overview.
One-to-Ones
Throughout the week
We offer every first year student the chance to meet with an older Christian read the Bible and pray for one another. Many students find this a really helpful way to grow as Christians.
If you are a student and would like to find out more about one-to-ones, please get in touch.
Exploring Christianity
Regular events
We want students at the two universities to hear the life-changing news of Jesus. Every term we host Campus Bible Talks or Hope Explored Courses on Lancaster University campus where we explore the Bible’s message together. We also encourage our students to meet with friends to read the Bible together.
Conferences
Mid-Year Conference
Every year our students go away together for MYC. Over a weekend we get stuck into a big Bible topic. For many students over the years, MYC has been a significant time to grow as a Christian.
The next MYC will be taking place 14-16 February 2025.
Student Weekenders
At the start of first and third term we spend a morning together digging into God’s word and catching up after the holidays.
Catch up on the Sept 2024 Weekender talk here.
Spur
We want to help students think about serving Jesus after they graduate. This means encouraging some towards full-time ministry. The Spur annual conference is a time to think through how you can best serve Jesus with your life.
Who heads up our student work?
Our student team leaders are Joe Standerwick, Lydia Stones and Dan Jenkinson and they head up our student ministry. They lead a large team of great volunteers whose purpose is to prayerfully make disciples of students who are rooted in the gospel and God’s word for the glory of God.
