Freshers 09-10

September is right around the corner and here at Bethel City Church we couldn't be any more excited if we tried! Thousands of students from across the globe are set to invade our city by enrolling at Keele or Staffs in September.

We cannot wait to welcome you to our church and to our city and we'll do whatever it takes to ensure that you get the very best out of your time at uni and that you settle in here as quickly and easily as possible. We believe that the key to unlocking the very best in you during your studies is to firmly plant yourself here in a great church, surrounded by great people.

Church

Bethel City Church is passionate about students. We have a team of dedicated pastors, who are absolutely committed to ensuring that you are inspired to become all that you can be. With years of student experience themselves, our student pastors will help you excel in your studies, make lasting and healthy relationships, and cause your world to become bigger. Ask them nicely and they'll even take you to the supermarket for the first time, show you around campus, or give you a guided tour of the city.

During term time, our Sunday morning City Gatherings are full to the brim of colourful and vibrant students, each possessing a heart for church, for praising Jesus and for making a significant difference on campus and around the city.

Please arrange a visit one Sunday morning before September. We'll ensure you get the full BCC welcome experience which will help you feel right at home before you've even moved here.

City Students

City Students is the phenomenal student ministry here at Bethel City Church, providing you with unique pastoral support, tailored specifically to you. Besides loving and supporting you, we'll champion, challenge and stretch you beyond your comfort zone and cause you to rise up and be all that God has designed you to be.

In addition we have an action-packed programme of events which will not only help you settle quickly during this new stage in your life but will develop you, sharpen your skills and gifts, and challenge you to reach out to the campus on which you live and study.

Get in touch with our Student Pastor Ben@ for further information, to arrange a visit or to get plugged into the life of BCC over the summer.

When you arrive in September we'll be there to carry your suitcase to your room and to help you move in to your halls, flat or house. We'll even pick you up from the bus station, train station, or airport if you let us know. 

We run a return student bus service from Keele Students' Union, Newcastle bus station, and Staffs Uni Campuses each Sunday. Semester passes will be available to purchase from September 20th 2009.
