Making Jesus Christ known to every student in Durham

St. Mary's College

Mary's CU meets in the EJCR at 7pm every Tuesday, and usually finishes by 8:30pm. To find the EJCR - enter the main Fergusson building and turn left. Walk to the end of the corridor and the EJCR is the room on your left.

We meet each week to encourage one another, to pray together and to read and study God's word. The aim of this is to excite and equip us as we seek to share the gospel with our friends, both individually and through planning evangelistic events in college (e.g. acoustic nights, 'Grill a Christian' etc)

The college reps are Kate Mullins (studying History) and Sarah Green (studying Theology). To help you get to know us a bit we thought we'd answer a few "unique conversation starters"...

  • If you could live in any home on a television series, what would it be?
    • Kate - I LOVE Prison Break almost enough to live in Fox River...maybe not...
    • Sarah - I don't think you can beat Friends for cosyness and laughter
  • What was your most recent trip of more than 50 miles?
    • Kate - I've just been on a road-trip round the south of England. Salcombe was furthest place we went to.
    • Sarah - I went island hopping in Greece this summer, and got to drive a motorbike around one of the islands!
  • What's the best costume you've ever worn?
    • Kate - a penguin costume that I made when I was about 9 which involved rubber gloves on my feet.
    • Sarah - I won a prize for dressing up as a clown when I was 6 and beat my brother who was in a super man costume... a very proud moment!
  • If you could have a super power, what would it be?
    • Kate - the power to cancel all other superpowers.
    • Sarah - making things move with my eyes like matilda.. the possibilities are endless :)

Andy and Adam are our two Impact leaders. Impact is the name for our small group Bible studies which we have each Tuesday.

Amy is our prayer rep. Her role is to organise different things we can pray for each week.

Liz is our publicity rep. She organises all our advertising for events.

If you have any questions feel free to send us an e-mail. We're both living out so have houses you can crash at if you feel the need to escape college, or else there are lots of lovely coffee shops in Durham we'd love to introduce you to!
