Austin Chinese Campus Christian Fellowship
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Austin Chinese Campus Christian Fellowship (ACCCF) is a registered religious student organization in the University of Texas at Austin, with supports from the Austin Chinese Church. It brings Chinese students on campus to Christianity, and nurtures the spiritual growth of Chinese Christians on campus.
There is a fellowship meeting every Friday evening. Activities during the fellowship meeting include Bible Study, special talk, etc. About 40-70 people participate each night. Participants come from Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and overseas Chinese from, for example, Malaysia, Vietnam and Belize. We also have some American friends from the Northwest Fellowship and Hill Country Bible Church, etc as our English teachers. This fellowship was bilingual during 1980s and 1990s (Mandarin and Cantonese). However, its meeting recently speaks Mandarin Chinese only for obvious political reasons, with some volunteers translating into English. Cantonese translation is not available although it is necesseary.
