OUR VISION
About us
We are a communiy of united Christian believers from different denominations who believe in Jesus Christ as our Lord and saviour. That he came to this earth as a human being, was crucified and resurrected to give humanity eternal life.
We strongly believe in the message of love that Christ came to earth for and want to spread this message across Roehampton University.
We believe in actively engaging with the local community being involved in local churches as well as the university social life. We want our members to be able to look inwards, look outwards and look upwards through our work here on campus.
Our vision is to grow a Christian community who are on fire for Christ and who want to work for his glory in all things.
We are affiliated withthe local churches around the area as well as UCCF. To check their website click here.

OUR BELIEFS
-
There is one God in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
-
God is sovereign in creation, revelation, redemption and final judgement.
-
The Bible, as originally given, is the inspired and infallible Word of God. It is the supreme authority in all matters of belief and behaviour.
-
Since the fall, the whole of humankind is sinful and guilty, so that everyone is subject to God's wrath and condemnation.
-
The Lord Jesus Christ, God's incarnate Son, is fully God; he was born of a virgin; his humanity is real and sinless; he died on the cross, was raised bodily from death and is now reigning over heaven and earth.
-
Sinful human beings are redeemed from the guilt, penalty and power of sin only through the sacrificial death once and for all time of their representative and substitute, Jesus Christ, the only mediator between them and God.
-
Those who believe in Christ are pardoned all their sins and accepted in God's sight only because of the righteousness of Christ credited to them; this justification is God's act of undeserved mercy, received solely by trust in him and not by their own efforts.
-
The Holy Spirit alone makes the work of Christ effective to individual sinners, enabling them to turn to God from their sin and to trust in Jesus Christ.
-
The Holy Spirit lives in all those he has regenerated. He makes them increasingly Christlike in character and behaviour and gives them power for their witness in the world.
-
The one holy universal church is the Body of Christ, to which all true believers belong.
-
The Lord Jesus Christ will return in person, to judge everyone, to execute God's just condemnation on those who have not repented and to receive the redeemed to eternal glory.
We believe in several statements that clarify our beliefs as a Christian Union. These beliefs unify us as a Christian Union and is the at the heart of our work here at Roehampton.
