OUR PEOPLE
CU is a community
CU is a community. We’re not just about events or programs.
God has made us for relationships. That’s why, at Christian Union, we really value our social connection with each other.
We strive to be a fellowship where you can be known, welcomed, and supported as we explore life and Jesus together. No one should have to figure everything out and go through uni alone.

Katelyn Manning
President
Hi! I am a third year Occupational Therapy student and I enjoy dancing, bike riding, playing with my dogs, and spending time with people. After moving away from home in 2024, Christian Union became a great place to find community and grow in my faith. It has been so encouraging to see God at work these past few years, and I look forward to how God will be working through Christian Union this year!
Kerry Corevski
Vice President
My name is Kerry, I’m a second year social work student at Latrobe University Bendigo. I began attending Bendigo Christian Union in the beginning of 2025 and they’ve been such a blessing in my life.
Heather Muringai
Secretary
Christian Union has been such an amazing club to be apart of on campus. Especially being an international student from Zimbabwe, i’ve found family in CU and am appreciative of the opportunities we get to grow together in knowing God🫶🏽
Tawana Tuturu
General Committee Member
I am in my second year of studying my Bachelors in Social Work. I started attending Christian Union in 2024. A Bible verse that I cling to is Phillipians 4:13 because I truly wouldn’t be where I am now without the reminder that I can do all things through Him who gives me strength.
Clarice Woon
Prayer Champion
Hi, my name is Clarice and I’m a 3rd year Speech Pathology student. I love Jesus, prayer, reading, and community, and am honoured to serve on the Servant Team this year. I’ve loved being a part of CU over the past few years and have realised how important prayer is to the life of CU. I’m excited to think more deeply about prayer this year and help facilitate a praying culture at CU (with God’s help!).
Evi Baxter
Mission and the World
Hi, I am currently studying Industrial Engineering and I’m in my third year. I started going to CU at the start of 2024, and it’s been a joy to be a part of such a great community after moving to Bendigo and knowing no one.
Elizabeth George
Treasurer
Hi, I am a third year dental student. I enjoy reading and being outside. I came to Christian Union at the start of 2024, and I have enjoyed the community and fellowship in Christian Union. CU is a great to continue to learn more about God and also grow in learning to live our lives for Christ.
DON’T GO
IT ALONE
University is about more than getting a degree. It’s a time for asking big questions about life, purpose, and what really matters.
At CU, you’ll meet other students asking similar questions, explore who Jesus is, and build genuine friendships that make uni life better. And we think you’ll find it makes faith clearer! Whether you’re curious, unsure, or convinced, there’s a place for you here.
