At St Barnabas, we love students and are so excited that you are (or are going to be) part of this fantastic city and the incredible experience that is student life! We’d love to invite you to #trychurch this year, there’s plenty going on that we’d love you to be part of.
Sundays
Each Sunday we gather at 9am and 10.45am to encounter God and connect together. At our 9am service we worship together, hear a message from the bible and share communion together (this is a quieter more traditional service). At 10.45am we have a longer time of worship and a message from the bible (and there’s also kids and youth work happening too). Between both services we gather for coffee. Sunday services are a great way to meet others within our church community from all different stages of life.
CommunitieS
As well as what happens on Sundays we gather midweek in our Barnabas Communities. Barnabas Communities are a place of belonging, a place to grow as disciples and a space for us to share our faith with others. We know that being away from family and friends can be hard whilst at Uni - being part of a Barnabas Community can be a great way to build strong relationships with others during your studies. All our communities are open for Students to join - this can be a great way of connecting with people at different stages of life.
We have communities meeting on different days and at different times. We’d encourage you to try a couple of communities out before committing to one.
EVENTS
Throughout the year we host different events in St Barnabas for students to get to know each other and connect with others across the church. Check back here to find out what is happening when!
