Last week the UBI Choir inspired passers-by with an outreach concert at the bandstand in the Church Street Mall. The programme included songs, choruses, testimonies and an evangelistic appeal led by members of the choir. They also distributed tracts and information about UBI.

On this Youth Day, we offer a collection of songs that the UBI choir sang during last term's missions conference to inspire and challenge the attendees.

As part of the Missions 2 module, UBI students participated in a contextual worship service for Muslim Background Believers. This activity was part of the Kairos training course which prepares individuals to become Christians who share God's heart for the least-reached people on earth and trains them to help their churches become "Great Commission Churches" that have the Great Commission at the heart of all their ministries.
