Christian Life

I was wondering if anyone could comment on the Christian life at the University. I have heard a lot about the greek system but have been hard pressed to find anything about a Christian aspect. Thanks.

You'll find a very active Christian community at UVa. There are 26 Christian-based student groups at the University...from denominational groups like Catholic Students Association...to interdenominational ethnic organizations like the mostly Korean GCF, which stands for Grace Christian Fellowship...to Christian singing groups like the Black Voices (an African-American Gospel Choir) and Jubilate (a Christian a cappella group).

Here's article that might interest you:

Here's an interesting article about a cool event that involved the various Christian groups and The Seven Society. Unfortunately, I can't find the original link, but here is a cached version. (You have to scroll to the bottom of the article.)
