IFES/World Mission Prayer Night

Wes and a colleague are responsible for organizing this event on November 6 for London students to pray for ministry among university students around the world. What's IFES? Read on...

UCCF (our organization) is part of a global mission working in over 150 countries: the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students (Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship is the US branch). IFES is a fellowship of students, staff and supporters: a third of a million people with one goal - to bring glory to God by establishing a vibrant gospel witness among students in every nation. We're an evangelical movement, committed to a high view of Scripture - its preaching, teaching and study. We seek to help students recognize the Lordship of Christ in every aspect of life and thought. Staff aim to provide Biblical models of leadership and ministry, where possible encouraging students themselves to take leadership responsibility on campus. All IFES national movements seek to present a culturally-relevant witness to Christ, working in close partnership with the Church in their country, wherever that's possible.
