2024 Core Project: The Start of a Chapter
February 20, 2024
This evening marks the inaugural meeting of the Core Project, a year-long discipleship programme that aims to foster Christian growth and deep community.
Thank you for visiting the UCT Y! Scroll down for more information about our offering for students and our upcoming events. For information for our postgraduate students and our wider community of partners (faculty, donors, churches, etc.), click the icon.
The UCT Y has 9 spaces for men and women in our residential programme. We invite you to join our Living & Learning Community and to put friendship and Christian growth at the heart of your student experience.
The UCT YMCA is an interdenominational Christian study centre: a place where we explore the implications of the gospel for your study, your vocation, and all of life. Although you’re expected at university to keep your faith out of your studies, we see the gospel as the living centre that makes sense of our work, our world, and everything else.
We work closely with undergraduates and postgraduates to provide a Christian foundation for vocation and social and cultural service to equip you to take up key roles at the university and beyond.

Friday 23 February, we begin a series of Bible studies on the topic: The Storyline of Scripture. As introductory as this topic might seem, it is a very powerful foundation stone for one’s understanding of the Bible.
This Spring vacation, we’re running a short afternoon seminar to discuss some basic meta-ideas about Scripture and some easy-to-use interpretive tools to help make you a more attentive reader of the Bible.
Community cooking is an opportunity to take a break from the studies, meet up with friends, and learn some life-changing cooking skills from Ma Precious.
