Bethany Prendergast
Bethany grew up in Colchester, Essex. She moved to Leicester to study English and Drama at De Montfort University where she loved being involved with her CU. After she graduated and spent six months in Colchester during lockdown, Bethany moved back to Leicester to work as a Ministry Trainee for Avenue Community Church.
Bethany had known she would probably be involved with a Christian Union at university, what she didn’t know was how exciting that really was. Not only did this build and strengthen her own faith but, by God’s grace, she was also able to see the lives of others being changed too. She found that there was nothing quite like a friend accepting your invitation to a CU event, or witnessing the growth of a fellow student’s faith as they got stuck into the CU.
Bethany feels blessed to be a part of continuing the work of Christian Unions across the UK by partnering with and supporting the CUs in Birmingham and Worcester as a Staff Worker.
