What Uncut is About

Uncut is all about discipleship, fellowship and fun for people who are from 17 to early 20’s. Whether you have just come to uni for the first time or you are halfway through, you need good input and friends who are going to help you walk with God in a real and honest way. On an average Uncut night (not that there is ever an average night!) we share life together, study the Bible, pray with each other, and have a laugh.

Also, make sure that you get connected into a cell. Cells meet once a month and are a great place to make really close friends and to be encouraged in your walk with God.

Life with Uncut is so much more than a Sunday at church so watch out for the parties, days away, nights out, meals and sports that we do.

Interviews

Cassie
Law – 3rd Year
I love Destiny Church and I have gotten so much from being a member of the church. Apart from church encouraging me in my relationship with God, I have also found family, which coming from a large family and studying in a new city, was something that I really needed and was looking for. Anyone who has ever left home for the first time knows that it can difficult. For starters you have to do the simple living on your own things‚ like cooking for yourself, doing your own washing and learning how to manage your own finances. I have found the church a real support in these challenges and although no one has done my washing yet, I have been grateful for and blessed by the hospitality, love, generosity, and friendship extended towards me by many people, as well as the practical help given to me.

Uncut is also cool because I’ve found real friends who I can just chill with, be myself with, be honest with, and have a laugh with. Life, annoyingly, gets very serious sometimes, so it’s great to have somewhere I can go to unwind and be real with my friends.

Fionna
Pharmacy – Final Year
I came to Glasgow from Malaysia so it is quite different! There is a big cultural difference especially how things operate here as opposed to at home. The weather is also very different! People here are very friendly and nice, and Glasgow is a good student city so it helps make life easier because there are plenty of people who I can make friends with. I don’t feel isolated at all. I went to church in Malaysia and I’m glad that I am able to be a part of Destiny whilst I am here. It really makes me feel like I’m part of something and not just a student. I’ve also really enjoyed getting to know other students who are my age through going to Uncut.

Andy
Mechanical Engineering – 4th Year
I’ve been on quite a journey to get where I am today! I have often found it tough at uni because for the first couple of years that I was doing my degree I really wasn’t enjoying it very much and it was very easy for me to get distracted from studying! But I finally made it into third year, after a second second year(!), and I have now started to really enjoy my studies. When I came down to Glasgow, my main concern was that I wanted to find a good church and get involved. Thankfully I found Destiny quite quickly and felt at home immediately. I got involved with serving at church and started going along to the group that went on to become Urban Lounge and now Uncut. I loved having the opportunity to meet people on a Wednesday night in Starbucks and build really good friendships. I remember Wednesday nights being described like when you are swimming and you get a chance to come up for air, and for me I have always found that to be true.
