WE LOVE STUDENTS!
Whether you’re a student at the University of Gloucestershire, Hartpury College, or anywhere else in the area, we’d love to invite you to be a part of the family here at Mariners and support you in whatever way possible as you study here in Gloucester.
We have a lively community of young people who meet up regularly for socials. We also have a Young Adults Life group who are currently meeting fortnightly.
If you are moving to Gloucester to study in September, or have been here a while, we are so excited to meet you and get to know you!
”Finding a church was top of the to-do list after moving to Hartpury, without God, I would not be here at all! I was using the student link-up tool to connect with churches in the area and find somewhere where I could get stuck in.”
“I love Mariners, the congregation is made up of people of all ages, so we can all learn and guide each other, and amongst this there is a great community of young adults who get together regularly outside of church events. I feel this has really helped me, as we 'do life' together, not just church.”
“Mariners is a very welcoming church, and they love to get people really involved and connected, instead of sitting out on the side-lines, we are meant to be a family after all, and with mariners a family is what you get. I was on the AV team within 5 months, and love serving this amazing bunch of people, and soon after was welcomed into a life group, where smaller groups of us meet during the week. I fell seriously ill last year, and the family attitude really showed, people prayed, brought food, visited me in at home and in a hospital and most of all, they loved and cared. My parents were comforted to know that I was well looked after in their absence and had a found a new home and a new family to support me through this next step on my journey of life.”
