<p>We know how difficult it is for you students to fit anything apart from hard work into your busy schedule. Yes, the heartache and misery that comes from having no free time pains us too. University is indeed a place of torture.</p>
<p>But fear not! Thanks to the wonders of modern technology, we are providing you with a plethora of ways to stay up to date and in tune with what&#8217;s going on with the Christian Union! They are&#8230;</p>
<h2>Email Subscription</h2>
<p>For years now the CU has provided members with an email newsletter to let them know what&#8217;s going off. That stalwart tradition continues today, so if email is your thing, then simply fill in the form below and we&#8217;ll add you to the list:</p>
[contact-form]
<h2>Newsletter RSS Feed</h2>
<p>For those of you who are a step further into the future, the Newsletter can now be subscribed to via an RSS feed. Its URL is <a href="http://www.gucu.co.uk/category/mailinglist/feed">http://www.gucu.co.uk/category/mailinglist/feed</a>, so either hit the link directly, or add it to <a href="http://reader.google.com">Google Reader</a> or the like.</p>
<h2>Christian Union Facebook Page</h2>
<p>&#8230;And Facebook in general, to be honest. The specific GUCU Facebook group can be found <a href="http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=106092489432309&amp;ref=nf">here</a>, but since just about the entirety of the english-speaking world has Facebook, a cursory glance should be enough to let you know what&#8217;s kicking off.</p>
<h2>CU on Twitter</h2>
<p>Love it or loathe it, Twitter is perfect for sending out updates and reminders as to what&#8217;s going on. Main meeting changed location? Last minute reminder about the CU Ball? The CU Twitter feed has it covered. Simply follow <a href="http://twitter.com/glasgowunicu">@glasgowunicu </a>and you&#8217;re sorted.</p>
<p><em>[Any other ways you'd like to be kept updated? Head on over to the <a href="http://www.gucu.co.uk/website-contacts/">CU site's contact page</a> and voice your thoughts.]</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>SUMMER CU THURSDAY</b></p>
<p>The plan is food, chillaxing, supporting and praying for one another and having a bible study walk through the gospel of John. </p>
<p>We will be meeting on<b> Thursday at 6pm</b> at 69 white street, says &#39;scrimgeour&#39; on the buzzer. Food will be provided but let me know you are coming for numbers and if you have any special dietary requirements let me know by Tuesday evening. </p>
<p>Join the facebook group for more info as it happens: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#%21/group.php?gid=114169468626772&amp;ref=ts" target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/group.php?gid=114169468626772&amp;ref=ts</a></p>
<p> <b><br />LOVE MAKES AN IMPACT 2010</b></p>
<p>One week of mission based in Glasgow but reaching out to the whole world. Daily devotionals, meeting exciting people from around the world, will do ceilidhs, food themed parties, trips around Scotland, working at airports and train stations meeting the internationals who will be in your classes for the rest of the year and getting a chance to do what Jesus said to do in offering love, kindness and hospitality -  and having some of the greatest adventures you can imagine all to test one hypothesis: love given can&#39;t possibly fail to make an impact.</p>
<p>3,000 international students will be arriving in September and many will never meet a UK friend. Mostly UK people don&#39;t make the effort to say hello. LMI is a great opportunity to befriend the stranger, meet people from all around the world, and share love. One chap last year asked &#39;Who are you people? We are strangers but you treat us like friends.&#39; and the answer is simply this: &#39;thats what Jesus did for us&#39;. </p>
<p>If you&#39;ve ever wondered what it meant when someone said of someone that they simply glow, or tried to understand how you can use your gifts, your heart in reaching out then get on board. Email <a href="mailto:lithgofinni [at] gmail.com" target="_blank">lithgofinni [at] gmail.com</a> for more info or to join! We really need 30 people :) The more people we can get, the more we can do. Starts 6 September, the week before freshers week. But join as soon as you can :)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s coming round to that time of year when new students flock in their thousands to the University of Glasgow. For these new students, it&#8217;s probably one of the biggest changes of their lives. A lot of them will be moving out of a home they&#8217;ve lived in for nearly 20 years, and starting up a new life among strangers. They&#8217;ll be excited, definitely, but probably a wee bit nervous too.  Freshers&#8217; week, then, is an excellent opportunity to share God&#8217;s love with folk, and to make them feel at home. For any prospective students reading this, seriously, Glasgow is awesome. You&#8217;ll love it.</p>
<p>But the whole host of events we have planned can&#8217;t be carried out unless we have the help of volunteers from CU to muck in. We&#8217;ll be helping freshers move in, putting out free drinks, holding  a pub quiz, and even having a ceilidh. But we need your help.</p>
<p>If anyone at all wants to get involved, please contact Scott Hamilton (<a href="mailto:scotth89 [at] hotmail.co [dot] uk">scotth89 [at] hotmail.co.uk</a>). We&#8217;ll be massively appreciative of any help we can get, even just giving out drinks. Don&#8217;t pass up this opportunity!</p>
<h3>Events Timetable</h3>
<p>At long last, the completed events table is up on the site. Feast your eyes on the wonders below, and mark them down in your diaries. The events in [brackets] are for people from CU who are helping out. Everything else is open to anyone! We look forward to seeing you there!</p>

<p>One week of mission based in Glasgow but reaching out to the whole world. Daily devotionals, gifts of hospitality, kindness, night time events and some of the greatest adventures you can imagine all to test one hypothesis: love given can&#39;t possibly fail to make an impact.</p>
<p>3,000 international students will be arriving in September and many will never meet a UK friend. Mostly UK people don&#39;t make the effort to say hello. LMI is a great opportunity to befriend the stranger, meet people from all around the world, and share love. One chap last year asked &#39;Who are you people? We are strangers but you treat us like friends.&#39; and the answer is simply this: &#39;thats what Jesus did for us&#39;. </p>
<p>If you&#39;ve ever wondered what it meant when someone said of someone that they simply glow, or tried to understand how you can use your gifts, your heart in reaching out then get on board. Email <a href="mailto:lithgofinni [at] gmail.com" target="_blank">lithgofinni [at] gmail.com</a> for more info or to join! We really need 30 people :) The more people we can get, the more we can do. Starts 6 September, the week before freshers week. But join as soon as you can :)</p>
<p><b><span>FRESHERS WEEK</span></b><br />13th-17th September marks probably the biggest week for the CU all year. Thousands of Freshers come to Glasgow and most of them will not have had the gospel explained to them clearly. Our goal as a CU is to give every fresher the opportunity to hear and respond to the gospel. It also is a great opportunity to help Christians coming to Glasgow to settle in and find fellowship as well as integrating them into our mission team. The hope is that every member of the CU will come back a week early and help out. We will be meeting every morning to pray and worship together before going out and witnessing for Christ on campus. Scary&#8230;yes? But exciting too.</p>
<p>If you are still not convinced to come back early then give this podcast a listen: <br /><a href="http://www.uccf.org.uk/students/planning-for-your-cu/evangelism/blog/2010-06/getting-ffffresh.htm">http://www.uccf.org.uk/students/planning-for-your-cu/evangelism/blog/2010-06/getting-ffffresh.htm</a><font color="#ff0000"></p>
<p><font color="#000000">If you want to find out more then visit the website (<a href="http://www.gucu.co.uk">www.gucu.co.uk</a>) which will hopefully be updated with information about the week. You can also email Scott Hamilton if you want to get more involved </font></font><span><a href="mailto:scotth89 [at] hotmail.co.uk">scotth89 [at] hotmail.co.uk</a>. And remember to keep praying!</p>
<p><b><span>SUMMER PRAYER LETTER<br /></span></b><span><font color="#000000">David White has written a prayer update which is attached to this email. Give it a read, print it off and stick it on your wall. That way you will remember to be praying for the CU, and remember, that we can&#39;t expect anything to happen unless we are praying.</p>
<p>Hope you are all enjoying your Summer.<br /></font></span></span>

The aim of this session is to get an idea of the glory of God and how this impacts our lives. What is the Glory of God?<span>  </span>Does the Glory of God have any relevance to our vision of CU as a mission on campus? What does it mean to seek God’s Glory<b>?</b></font></p>

<div><font color="#333333">This Wednesday night after CU we will be having a prayer and praise night at Flat 0/1, 37 Cranworth Street. It is going to be a great opportunity to pray for everyone on our campus. So often we focus on ourselves too much around exam time, but God&#39;s mission continues. Come along, it will be brilliant.</p>

It&#39;s a pretty tough bit of Edinburgh (they do exist&#8230;) and so will include a variety of different outreaches including footie, mums and tots, and whatever else you can think of. </p>
<p>CHELYABINSK, RUSSIA &#8211; UCCF Scotland are linked with Russia, and every year students from CUs in Scotland go to Russia to help out with work happening with the CHristian Unions over there. It is a great opportunity and there is still some space. The mission runs from the 3rd-24th July 2010</p>
<p>All will include training in cross-cultural evangelism, as well as multiple opportunities to share the glorious gospel of Jesus with people. Get a pal on board and sign up together!
