Missing in action

If thousands of starfish were washed up and stranded on a beach, throwing one back into the ocean would seem futile wouldn't it? ...except for the life of that one starfish. 

If thousands of people went missing from churches throughout the country you'd think we'd notice right? Except we don't. They slip through the net never to be seen again, missing in action, right under our noses. 

We have an imminent catastrophe approaching. It's a annual feature on our calendar actually. Each year thousands of Christian freshers will wash up on the shores of our university towns and cities. We expect seven out of every ten to end up missing in action. The transition to uni is perilous. It's extremely likely that a young person from your church, your friends' son or daughter, your niece or nephew; won't find a church when they land in that alien city. 

The solution exists, it's accessible and readily available. Student Linkup links students to churches when they leave for university. We can stem the tide. We can change the stats. We can change the culture. We can save the life of each starfish, one by one. 

Who do you know going to uni? Who do you know, who knows someone going to uni? You have the opportunity to be a part of this life saving rescue mission. It will cost you nothing, but it will have an unmeasurable kingdom building ripple effect. It is critical that you spend a few seconds sharing this life line with your friends, family, neighbours and churches. 

Student Linkup connects students to churches and churches to students.
