The Challenge:
Universities in Australia are full of students who are poised to make life-changing decisions about what they believe and where they are heading. AFES works in this God- given window of opportunity to reach students for Christ.
The Fellowship:
AFES employs staff to help and encourage students in their Christian growth and witness, and has student groups on campuses in every state and territory in Australia. Groups hold a variety of activities, such as regular public Bible talks, smaller Bible studies, prayer groups, mid-year conferences and outreach events.

AFES provides materials to students for evangelism and Bible study, and releases
various publications such as Salt Magazine and the email prayer resource, Prayer net.
The Mission
To promote the mission of Christ in Australian universities by building evangelical
student groups that:

  • Evangelise students by proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord
  • Encourage growth toward maturity in Christ
  • Train students in the skills and character to serve Jesus and his people
  • Send graduates throughout Australia and the world to serve Christ
