Freshers week | September
Coming to University is a big step; you’re away from home and you don’t know anyone. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t feel any less welcome. As part of welcoming people to the Aber Family we are putting on events right through Freshers Week, starting with:
Saturday 21st
Bonfire and BBQ on the beach - Bonfires are a must in Aber, with great food and great company, it's always awesome
Sunday 22nd
Walk to church - Different students from different churches in Aber will show you to their sunday services, to help you get a feel for the churches here in Aber
Monday 23rd
Globe Cafe - Globe is for our international students (although all are welcome) to share a meal, bible study together, and have some great fellowship!
Tuesday 24th
Seafront Walk - Come walk and talk with us, for some chill casual chit chat as we stroll along our beautful seafront, so come and say hello to us (we are friendly)
Wednesday 25th
Games night - Board games and card games are always a great icebreaker, so come along :)
Thursday 26th
CU fair - We will be have stalls to show each of our weekly events, so you can get a feel for what we put on as a CU. There will be a chance to meet the leaders of our bible study groups, as well as a talk on our visions and values as a CU. It's basically a summary of what CU is! So if you'd like to meet us and ask any questions you are more than welcome to come along! This event is for new people so don't hesitate to come along :)

Weekend away | October
As a CU we spend a weekend away together every year. We will have a guest speaker, as well as different seminars, games, worship, prayer, meals, and some crazy enough will go swimming in the freezing lake. It is an amazing time to build friendships and to learn and grow in your faith.
Town and University Carol Concert | Start of December
The town and university carol concert is an event hosted by the university and local churches. It is a great opportunity to hear what Christianity is all about, While getting in the Christmas spirit!
Events Week | February
As a CU we host a week of events to answer you questions about the Christian faith. We host a range of informal lunches that briefly address a topic such as: Do all religions lead to God?, How can a God of love allow suffering?, Has Science buried God? These are followed by a question and answer session. The evenings follow a similar format, but address the topic much more deeply, as well as looking at the story of a guest.
​
And More
We like to put on different events from film and games nights, to worship evenings. So stay tuned on our socials to see what's going on and when! There's something for everyone at Aberystwyth Christian Union, from introverts to extroverts, to Christians and those questioning - Everyone is welcome
