S O U T H a M P T O N U N I V E R S I T Y C H R I S T I a N U N I SOUTHAMPTON UNIVERSITY CHRISTIAN UNION What is Church Search and how does it work? Welcome to Southampton! As a CU we are praying for you as you settle into your new home, especially after the last couple of years that we have had. We’d love to help you find a church in which you can really feel like you belong as part of the family, and so we have organised the Church Search! On both Sunday 3rd October and Sunday 10th October, we will be hosting Church Search on campus where you will be able to meet some student workers and students from many of the local churches as well as to meet many new Freshers in the same boat as you looking around different churches. This will all be done over breakfast. Afterwards, a group of students from each church along with the student workers will be heading to their churches and we would love for you to go along with them to church as you explore different churches in Southampton. When and where is the Church Search? Sunday 3rd October and Sunday 10th October from 8:30am-10:30am at the Faith & Reflection Centre on Highfield Campus (Building 2). Current students will be meeting at Halls receptions at 8am to bring you to the Church Search breakfasts on both mornings as well. Information in this booklet In this booklet, you will find a description of 14 churches in Southampton stating the church’s vision, times for Sunday services, addresses and what student work they offer. Being a major university city, we are blessed to have so many amazing, bible-centred churches in Southampton with many offering thriving student work. There is also the contact information for the student workers at each of the churches. We hope that this booklet along with the Church Search breakfasts will help you in your exploration of churches in Southampton and will help you to settle within a church during your time as a student here. Why should I be in a Church? Church is a community of believers, meeting to encourage one another, grow in faith together and listen to the word of God being preached from the Scripture. The earliest believers met together (Acts 2:42-47), and the writer of Hebrews encourages it (Hebrews 10:24-25). CU is not a Church; we are a body of believers on campus, seeking to give everyone the opportunity to hear and respond to the Good News and love of Jesus. The CU is helped and encouraged by many churches across the city which our members go to, so we want to help you also find a church where you can grow, be supported and serve – a home for your time at university and possibly beyond. 2 SUCU is a member of UCCF, with whom we share our core beliefs which are outlined here in our doctrinal basis. The basis of the Fellowship shall be the fundamental truths of Christianity, as revealed in Holy Scripture, including: 1. There is one God in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. 2. God is sovereign in creation, revelation, redemption and final judgement. 3. The Bible, as originally given, is the inspired and infallible Word of God. It is the su- preme authority in all matters of belief and behaviour. 4. Since the fall, the whole of humankind is sinful and guilty, so that everyone is subject to God's wrath and condemnation. 5. The Lord Jesus Christ, God's incarnate Son, is fully God; he was born of a virgin; his hu- manity is real and sinless; he died on the cross, was raised bodily from death and is now reigning over heaven and earth. 6. Sinful human beings are redeemed from the guilt, penalty and power of sin only through the sacrificial death once and for all time of their representative and substitute, Jesus Christ, the only mediator between them and God. 7. Those who believe in Christ are pardoned all their sins and accepted in God's sight only because of the righteousness of Christ credited to them; this justification is God's act of undeserved mercy, received solely by trust in him and not by their own efforts. 8. The Holy Spirit alone makes the work of Christ effective to individual sinners, enabling them to turn to God from their sin and to trust in Jesus Christ. 9. The Holy Spirit lives in all those he has regenerated. He makes them increasingly Christ- like in character and behaviour and gives them power for their witness in the world. 10. The one holy universal church is the Body of Christ, to which all true believers belong. 11. The Lord Jesus Christ will return in person, to judge everyone, to execute God's just con- demnation on those who have not repented and to receive the redeemed to eternal glory. In Southampton we are blessed with a huge number of very good churches and although all of those who take part in Church Search do need to stand in agreement with the above state- ments, there are many others who hold different views to some of those points. Therefore, this booklet contains a selection of the largest and most popular churches who DO stand in agree- ment, most of whom have been supporters of SUCU for many years. However, this booklet isn’t a definitive list of all of the churches which are available to you. We highly recommend that you check out a number of churches with the aim of finding the church which most suits you – this booklet, if nothing else, is a great place to start. 3 Vision Above Bar Church exists to glorify God by seeking to make and mature disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. We are a community of Christians loving God, following Jesus and sharing the hope we have.

  • Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1St July – 30Th September
    Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1st July – 30th September I am often challenged when I read the opening words of Paul’s letters in the New Testament, where he reminds his readers that they are constantly in his prayers. Think about the impact for the Philippian Christians as they read these words: ‘I thank my God every time I remember you, constantly praying with joy in every one of my prayers for all of you, because of your sharing in the gospel from the first day until now.’ Philippians 1: 3-5 Many of you will be able tell stories of the impact of having others pray for you. Some of you are prayed for every day by friends or family members. Others have been held close to God through times of challenge when your own prayers have felt inadequate or even impossible. And most of us can recount the importance of others’ prayers when we have been ill or facing difficult choices. What a joy to pray for one another. So why I am challenged by the words of Paul? Why do I find it difficult to pray when that is the thing I so desperately desire? Perhaps I forget that prayer is a joy and think of it as a responsibility that weighs heavily. Or maybe I just don’t carve out the time to spend in God’s presence. The Prayer Course is a great resource to encourage us to pray more regularly and it contains a simple reminder of how we can approach prayer: - Keep it simple - Keep it real - Keep it up Prayer is a conversation with God and we can speak with him outdoors in nature, as we go about our daily work, as we gaze out of the window, with words or in silence.

  • Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1St July – 30Th September
    Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1st July – 30th September “We always thank God for all of you and continually mention you in our prayers. We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labour prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ” Paul writing to the Christians in Thessalonica. I am conscious that several people have prayed for me since the day I was born (in 1961!). I have also always prayerfully asked a number of friends to commit to praying regularly for me and have seen the work of intercession as a vital part of our life together as Christians. This prayer diary invites us all to engage in this ministry as part of our care for each other and also as a co-participants in the mission and ministry we share. Let’s see this as a three-month adventure in prayer. Giving thanks for you, This month... how might you pray for environmental issues? For example, you might focus on ‘clean air, pure water, rich earth’; on the need for individual/national/international attitude & behaviour change; for those most affected by climate change & pollution... How might you be part of the answer to your prayers? For example, you might reduce your carbon footprint; cut down on single-use plastics; feed the birds in your garden; write to your MP about promoting renewable energy; sign up for the BCM in Creation Care!
