Our Story
Christian Union Ireland (formerly IFES Ireland) is part of a global movement of students following Jesus as the Irish branch of IFES, the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students. Since its beginnings in 1947, IFES has grown from 12 countries to over 160 national movements across 11 regions, connecting students worldwide who are passionate about sharing the good news of Jesus on campus!

Through CUI, students experience life-changing community, spiritual growth, and the joy of seeing God at work in students across Ireland and around the world! From weekly small group Bible studies and prayer meetings to campus outreach, Mission Weeks, and our national conference, EQUIP, there are so many ways for students to get involved.
CUI also supports students through one-to-one mentoring, training, and opportunities to serve others on campus and beyond. Every student, staff member, and supporter is part of this unfolding story of students shining for Christ locally, nationally, and globally!
“The greatest impact the CU has had on me was just helping me think strategically on how to do evangelism where we were as students! It has really enriched my Christian life and given me a greater vision for what God is doing and will do in his Kingdom.”
Jonathan Reid (Former CUI Student, Current Member of the Board)
