Dear All,

Praise God for seeing us through the past two terms at Imperial! While it certainly has not been easy, we thank God for all the events we've managed to run, for all the people we have been able to reach out to, and His work in stirring up hearts to respond to the Gospel. It is my pleasure to be sharing what God has been at work in the CU this term: [cid:image001.jpg at 01D2C154.1339E2A0]
 Moreover, it is immensely encouraging to subsequently see new faces joining our newly-rebranded discussion group Satisfied: The Conversation, which resumed right after Events Week. During these sessions we read John's gospel with newcomers and answered their questions. Please thank God and pray for two regulars: K, who is quite interested in looking further into Christ and for F, who has read all of John's gospel. Please pray for all who attended as well, that God will protect the seeds sown and grow them into faith, and that the group will continue to grow steadily in size.

Club Mission this term has continued to be fruitful in getting people to talk about Christianity and hear more about our faith.  It has also been a great platform for publicizing our events and leading people keen to learn more to our discussion groups. Thank God for all these developments and pray that we will be able to persist in such efforts in the upcoming exam-heavy term.

Handover this year took place in mid-March, after Events Week. As the out-going committee, we've decided to implement a new role of Events Co-ordinator, who take some load of the planning of big events such as Weekend Away and Events Week:
CU COMMITTEE 2017/2018
President - Jonathan Tilford
Vice President/Treasurer - Rebecca Rowden
Secretary - Amy Farrell
Evangelism Co-ordinator - Tom Bellingham
Events Co-ordinator - Helen Rimell
International Co-ordinator - Hymn Chan
Prayer Secretary - Anna Wilson
HUB Co-ordinator - Sam Lowe
Praise God raising up people to fill the roles, and please join us in praying for the incoming committee as they take over their respective roles.

Finally, the running of events during this week as well as the length of the year requires much time, effort and finances. We ask for your prayers for God's provision of sufficient funding to run outreach events throughout the year. We have been greatly blessed with resources and helpers in previous years so please pray that there would continue.

God bless,

Andrew Baey

ICCU Secretary 2016/2017

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God."
Hebrews 12:1-2
