What We Do

CUGF exists to glorify God by funding and supporting student ministry and ministry training at UNE, so that Jesus Christ is proclaimed and believers are grown to maturity in Him, equipping them to build up the Church.

For many people their time at university is a particularly formative time in their lives; it is the first time that they have left the nest, started to live independently and decide their own priorities. This time can be particularly challenging for young Christians as they are exposed to a range of temptations with little local support. It is also a time where many people are open to exploring other world views.

There are great opportunities for ministry that supports Christians who come to university and for discipling them towards Christian maturity. There are also great opportunities for sharing the gospel with people who are forming their own world view. You may have benefited from such ministry yourself.

CUGF seeks to make the most of these opportunities by funding, supporting and encouraging student ministry at UNE primarily through supporting Christians United, the on campus Christian group. CUGF also supports ministry training, through supporting MTS apprentices, who very often are graduates of the Christians United ministry at UNE.

We need your help to continue supporting gospel work at UNE. Please consider donating to ensure that the work of evangelising, training and discipling can continue to thrive at UNE.
