 almost the start of the autumn term at Imperial and the Christian Union are planning another year packed full of events to give every Imperial student the chance to hear the gospel! The new committee are already deep in preparations for the year ahead and
 we are excited to hit the ground running on September 30</span><span style="font-size:6.6pt;font-family:Calibri;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:super;">th</span><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">,
 helping freshers move into their new homes. During freshers’ week, we hope to meet heaps of new members through the Freshers’ Fair and aim to reach people from all backgrounds and worldviews at our Skeptical lunch-bars and International Afternoon Tea. As always,
 our primary goal for Freshers’ Week and throughout the rest of the year is to share the life-bringing message of Jesus with our fellow students.

 many events planned in the coming weeks, we do have expenses in order to reach the students of Imperial with the gospel in generous, hospitable and creative ways. We will need to cover the cost of food for lunch-bars and washing-up liquid bottles (with a timetable
 of our events attached to them) to hand out at the fair, among other expenses. This brings us to the reason for this email. The CU depends on donations from supporters in order to provide the means to run our events. We seek to run high-quality events and
 outreach as a CU, showing genuine care for the students of Imperial, and to do this we need your help. We would like to ask you, if you don’t already, to consider donating to the CU or including us in your regular giving. Raising sufficient funds would mean
 we are able to continue faithfully serving our friends and fellow students, reaching as many as possible with the gospel at Imperial.</span></p>

 would enable us to host the afternoon tea and £60 would cover the cost of one lunch-bar. Would you be able to partner with us and sponsor one of our Freshers’ Week Events? To find out how to donate, please visit
