Students Reaching
Students for
Christ​

We are a family of students, staff, and supporters working, praying, and growing together to give every student in Ireland the chance to respond to the life-changing good news of Jesus.

Who We Are

A Movement For Every Campus.

At Christian Unions Ireland (CUI), we’re all about empowering and equipping student-led Christian Unions across universities in Ireland. These CUs are missional teams on campus, made up of students from different local churches united by one purpose: to share the good news of Jesus.

We believe in students reaching students for Christ. Students have an incredible opportunity to live out their faith among their peers. As they study and do life together, they have countless chances to live and speak for Jesus. With your support and partnership, we can equip and encourage CU students to boldly make a lasting impact on campus for God’s glory.

Student Voices

What Students Are Saying.

Real stories from students across Ireland whose lives have been shaped by their CU — and by the God their CU pointed them to.

The Christian Union has played a huge role in my faith journey. It’s what first led me to believe in God, helped me understand the Bible, and showed me the power of prayer.

Alessandra

CUI Student

I wasn’t even a Christian then! What drew me in was the community of people who showed unconditional love and made me feel like I truly belonged, even as a foreigner in a new country.

Janet Chia

CUI Student & Formation Worker

It’s great to have that supportive community when you’re trying to live for Jesus in your context. University is not an easy place to be a Christian but it’s also a place with real opportunities to grow and a real opportunity to witness
