York

There is plenty happening for international students in York all across the city, from the University to St. John’s College, in language schools and in local churches. To find out more about international student events and activities going on York email theSt. Michael le Belfry church office. Some events that run regularly are:

PASSPORT: International Films for International Students

This is usually held on the last Monday of every month at the Parish Centre Lounge. PASSPORT is a free social occasion for international students to meet and relax. Films from around the world are shown on a big screen. Pizza is usually ordered, and if there is time we have an informal discussion about the film afterwards.

International Cell Group

The cell group at St. Michael le Belfrey is for international students who are Christians, but people who are not Christians are welcome to attend, meet people and see what is going on. We meet on a weekly basis to study and pray. The Cell Group is involved in many other events too across York, and has a weekend away in the spring to the Lake District.

Are you interested in meeting British people?

Would you like to visit a British home? Would you like to meet somebody to practice English with (for free!)? Would you like to find out more about what the Bible and what Christians believe? If the answer is 'yes' to any of these questions, please get in touch.
