CARDIFF UNIVERSITY CHRISTIAN UNION
@CARDIFFUNICU @CARDIFFUNICU
WWW.CARDIFFUNICU.ORG.UK
We are so excited that you have come to Cardiff University and are interested in being part of the Christian Union.
We believe that it is really important that we, as Christians, are part of a church.
We understand that the prospect of finding a new church can be daunting, so we want to help!
Each page of this handbook has information about a different church in Cardiff, including their contact details if you want to find out more. We think you’ll be spoiled for choice!
We are also holding church walks to help you find a church. We’ll be meeting at 9:45am at the bottom of the Students’ Union steps for four Sundays (from 18th September). Have an idea of which church you want to try out, and there will be someone from there to show you the way!
We have aimed to create a page on as many churches as possible. The churches in the handbook are listed in alphabetical order:
Albany Road Baptist Church All Nations Church
All Saints Church Llandaff Ararat Baptist Church Calvary Chapel Cardiff
