The new academic year starts this month and KT Students Ministry would like to take the opportunity to welcome back all of our returning university students, as well as those of you who are new to higher education this year! Starting university can bring about an emotional roller-coaster. From the excitement of all these new places and meeting new people, to the challenge of handing in your assignment before the deadline, to the homesick feeling you didn’t expect – it can quickly become overwhelming. But it doesn’t have to! Our KTSM community is dedicated to providing our students a platform to engage and connect with other from all universities across London, with various backgrounds and majors. Here you’ll meet and make new friends and we’ll find ways we can support you through your time as a student. Working together, we aim to enhance the university experience and inspire a lifetime of learning. We organise regular socials to get to know each other and have a good time together. This is why we encourage you to bring along your friends and colleagues from university, so they can benefit from it too! While we have fun, we believe that you will enjoy great company and together we will be equipped to represent Christ in the academic sphere. Being a part of KTSM has aided Mike’s academic experience: Mike in his first year Being a freshman in university and new to England, one of my challenges was finding a place where I could express myself without the fear of being misunderstood. I had to find a group of young adults who have similar Christian goals, and were ready to freely share their experiences and thoughts with everyone. Participating regularly in KTSM for the past two years, I’ve learned a lot from the weekly topics we discuss, especially those concerning our relationship with God and others. I have learned that a group of young people can grow together while having fun in the body of Christ. We are all thrilled and looking forward to having you join us this year! If you’re a higher education student, aged 18-25, join us every Thursday from 7pm in KT Executive Room.
