Durdham Hall CU 2010-11

Email: durdham@bristolcu.org.uk

Dear Durdhamite fresher,

Durdham Christian Union is a group looking to journey together to discover more about the person of Jesus Christ; who He is and what He has done, and to share this good news with those  around us. We meet once a week to have fun and encourage each other, whilst exploring the Bible and looking into what it means in our lives. From whatever background you are from, and whatever beliefs you hold, it is an opportunity to discover more about the Christian faith and chat about any queries and questions you may have in a relaxed and friendly setting.

As your CU reps, we will be living in Durdham hall with you guys so will always be available for you to pop round, have a chat, eat some food and maybe play some guitar hero. We know what it’s like to be a fresher so can (try to) give you a few directions!

Other than our Wednesday meetings, we will also be putting on other events and socials throughout Fresher’s week and through the rest of the year- so watch out for these opportunities to join in and have fun, food and a good laugh (often at Eddie’s expense!)

For more info, or to chat to us before you get here- add us on our facebook group ‘Durdham Hall CU 2011-12’

We are looking forward to meeting you guys,
Love Becca and Eddie

So a little about us…

Rebecca Jane Cook: because Eddie needs someone who knows what they’re doing.

Becca Cook

Proof that good things come in small packages… or at least unusual things.  With a disproportionally large heart for her sub average stature, Becca is always ready and raring to lend a helping hand, and/or cook up a storm (metaphorically speaking: the general cooking procedure is generally quite tidy, unless Eddie gets involved). Her excellent culinary skills and ability to know everyone in a 5 mile radius are marred only by her unpredictable tendency to spontaneously break into song at any given moment.  Some may say her love for inserting her arm into unsuspecting animals is a symptom of childhood trauma; Rebecca tries to tell us that it’s an essential part of her veterinary degree… we’re not so sure the overwhelming joy in doing so is essential.

Warning!: feeding Rebecca sugar may cause spontaneous 40 minute laughing fits.

Edward James Latimer: because Becca needs someone who can reach the top shelf.

Eddie Latimer

Some say he was a scientific experiment gone very, very wrong, with hair almost viewable from space and a voice audible from equally as far. We reckon, however, that he does have some uses… His mass of ginger locks not only give comic value but also double up as on head pen storage and as a built in mop. It also means you can never lose him in a crowd (although we are yet undecided whether this is good thing or not!). When not jamming on the guitar, he will always have another album you can borrow, or one to listen to lounging in his room.

Although Eddie’s memory leaves something to be desired he’ll be able to remember unusual facts about you… but probably not your name.  Always enthusiastic and eager to get involved, Eddie defiantly has the Joy of the Spirit, and will always keep you smiling. Wisdom on the other hand… well, we’ll keep praying for that.  But Eddie’s Computer Science degree and ginger complexion do mean he is scared of sun light, so we will need to pull him outside from time to time to make sure he gets his vitamin D.
