What is Aardv:ark?

Bristol is a city with high numbers of students based in colleges, universities, sixth forms and training schools. Aardv:ark provides practical help in both discipleship (how does Christian faith work out in daily life) and mission (how relevant is this to my world?) Our hope is that Aardv:ark will also help newcomers to the city / university / church, to find friends and connect with the wider community of BCF.

We are not a church with hordes of students. Just some great ones! It’s a community that’s been developing over the past three years and we’d love you to be a part of the future growth of Aardv:ark.

There is food at the end too.. usually pizza!

What about the name?

A definition of the aardvark was given as follows: aardvark (ard’-vark) a controversial animal with a long probing nose used for sniffing out the facts and stimulating thought and discussion.

So when/where does all this happen?

Sunday evenings in the Ark at 8pm.

Who can I contact for more information?

The BCF Student worker is Ben Payne (he doesn’t always dress like this.) He is well used to the student life, having just finished a degree at UWE in Bristol. You can contact him for more information on 07888 896132

Or contact Neil Edbrooke, one of the BCF Leaders, on 07709 655624

Meanwhile … look forward to a great year.
