some Qs we get

asked a lot.

Yes! Griffith Christian Students is affiliated with the Student Guild as an official group.

You’re very welcome to come – regardless of your experience of church (or if you have no experience of church!). GCS is a place to make friends and discover more about Jesus. Our students attend lots of different churches – ask us and we can help you connect with one if you’d like.

AFES stands for the Australian Fellowship of Evangelical Students. We’re a movement of student groups from across the country, associated with IFES (the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students).

That’s okay! We understand the pressures on uni students – exams, assignments, work, and more – but making time to invest in your faith is also important. We run events on different days and times – some in the day, some in the evening, and some that form just to suit you.
There are also opportunities to connect outside of semesters, including our Mid-Year Camp (early July) and National Training Event (early December).

We affirm your caution! Totally valid question. There’s an increasing number of questionable sects operating on university campuses. At GCS, we’re never okay with manipulating or coercing people. We strive for transparency: we openly name our beliefs, affiliations and leaders, and are and have always been affiliated with the Student Union.
Cults often seek to cut you off from other good communities and churches and plug you into theirs. GCS does not do this. Instead, more than 25 local churches of different denominations and traditions all around Brisbane and abroad love GCS, are home to many of our students and want to see students connect with us on campus.
