What is mission and why do we do it?
The last command which Jesus gave us before he went back into heaven was the great commission:

"All power in heaven and earth has been given to me, so go and make followers of all people in the world. Baptise them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Teach them to obey everything i have taught you, and I will be with you always, even until the end of the age." (Matthew 28:18b - 20 [Youth Bible])

Mission is not something which you have to go to africa to do, mission is telling your friends, housemates, classmates, lecturers and anyone else you come in to contact with about life with Jesus @ the centre. But mission is also not just about telling people, it is also about living the life that Jesus called us to live! The Christian union runs to equip people in their lifes with God and also to equip them to share that life with others. Our goals in life are these, to know christ and to make him known, and it is this making him known which we call mission.

ALPHA COURSE February 2006
We run an alpha course once a semester.

The alpha course is a chance for you to learn about christianity in a relaxed and unthreatening scenario. The course is run on Thursday evenings and offers the chance to ask questions and reflect on what christians beleive. the course includes a free meal, a talk and then a chance to discuss what you've heard in the talk over coffee. The course runs for 6 weeks, with a weekend away in the middle of it.
Please be praying for all those leading the course, those who are on the course and those who are serving the people on the course in one way or another. Please also pray for the weekend away. Thanks.
