Student Leaders

Ray

Hi everyone! My name is Ray and I joined UCM when I started attending UVic in 2021. Last year I had the pleasure of leading one of our weekly community groups and this year I am stepping into the role of club President. I’m going into my third year of psychology and some of my interests include hiking, biking, rock climbing, and growing avocados. I look forward to meeting you and growing in faith together!

Luke

I'm originally from Whistler, but have been in Victoria for a few years now. I'm in my 4th year of Software Engineering, with a couple years to go, and this is my first year leading with UCM. In the limited free time I have, I like to take photos, play a video game or two, and work on my car. Summer camp is a big part of my life, and when I'm not at school, I work as an Assistant Program Director at Gardom Lake Bible Camp in the Okanagan. I'm very excited to see what God's doing on campus and in Victoria this year!

CG Leader 

Ben

Hi, my name is Ben, and I am in my last year of business here at UVic! I grew up in Calgary, and then went to high school in Tsawwassen. I like reading, video games, sports, SPIKE BALL and building a relationship with God!!

CG Leader

Matthew

Hey! I'm Matt and I'm the worship director for UCM and one of the community group leaders. I'm going into my third year of software engineering at Uvic and I've been a part of UCM since my first year. I like bouldering, videography, Taylor Swift, and dislike Greek yogurt and microwave beeps. When I was born the doctor thought I misplaced a kidney, which I didn't, but just ended up foreshadowing all the other things I'm notorious for misplacing. Hope to see you at UCM!
