Daniel Bowen
Daniel is doing Relay in Bristol, supporting the Christian Unions in the University of Bristol and Bristol, University of the West of England.
Relay is a ten-month discipleship, training and mission programme run by UCCF, a charity which aims to give every student in Great Britain an opportunity to hear and respond to the good news about Jesus Christ.
Relay Workers equip, resource and encourage student Christian Unions whilst being discipled and trained by a member of UCCF staff.
Daniel says...
Hi, I’m Dan and I’ve just finished studying a Computer Science degree at the University of Bristol, and in this coming year I will continue working alongside students at the Christian Unions at the University of the West of England and the University of Bristol doing Relay.
My time at university has really helped to strengthen my faith, with my church and friends in the Christian Union supporting and encouraging me to step out and share what I believe with my friends who didn’t yet know Jesus. It’s been a real privilege to see students across campus engaging with questions about faith and wanting to know more. Going into this next year, I’m looking forward to supporting students of the Christian Union in the way that I was supported, and seeing the fruits of this and what God is doing across the university campus.
I’m excited to be able to continue to be a part of student mission in this year, but I know I can’t do this myself and will need to rely on God. I’m seeking a strong network of supporters so if you could pray for my work and the Christian Unions, I would be extremely grateful. A link to receive my prayer letter is on this page.
Another way you could support me and this ministry is by giving financially. With Relay being a self-funded year, I’m aiming to raise around £12,500 across the year, so giving in any capacity is highly appreciated. Thank you!
Pray for Daniel
Prayer is a vital part of supporting Daniel’s work with Christian Unions. Here are some prayer points from Daniel:
- Please pray that I would continue to rely on God for all things, giving glory to Him in everything I do, and I that I would grow in my love and relationship with Him.
- Please pray that students in Bristol would be encouraged in their journey with Christ and that non-Christian students would be willing to hear about Jesus and come to saving faith in Him.
- Please pray that even in the hard times this year, that I would continue to hold fast to Christ and that His power would be shown so clearly in my weakness.
