Student Lunch & Fellowship

Sundays, after Worship
During university semesters – check our Events page for the current semester’s schedule.

University students gather in the Great Hall most Sundays after worship for a free lunch, fellowship, & a time of devotion. Devotions focus on talking points from each Sunday’s worship service. You don’t need to “prepare” for fellowship & devotion. We are happy to have you join us so we can all learn more about scripture and grow in our relationship with Christ.

Full and part-time undergraduate or graduate students from all colleges and universities are welcome!

For more information, please contact the office.

Cooperative Baptist Student Fellowship

Thursdays, 6:00–7:00 PM
During university semesters – check our Events page for the current semester’s schedule.

At University Baptist Church, we’re honored to host the Chapel Hill gathering of Cooperative Baptist Student Fellowship (CBSF)—a welcoming, affirming, and thoughtful space for college students to grow in faith, friendship, and purpose. Rooted in the values of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, CBSF offers students an open table to ask honest questions, explore scripture, serve the community, and discover what it means to follow Jesus in today’s world. Whether you’re seeking connection, conversation, or simply a place to belong during your college years, we’d love for you to join us.

Learn more about CBSF at cbfnc.org/ministries/college-students.
