Help with a Mission on my Doorstep
Donation protected
Hello,
Thank you for taking time to have a look at my GoFundMe page. My name is Lauren, I am 23 years old and I want to invite you to be a part of my Mission on my Doorstep.
As you may already know, church ministry is woven through my family - my parents and grandparents have been pastors, deacons, ministers and missionaries. The possibility of my own ministry has arisen time after time. In the past it has been something I’ve tried to run away from, a cliche I’ve tried to avoid. But now I’ve decided to stop running. I’m committing one-year to serving in a church in my adopted home, Nottingham.
For my 12-month internship with the Younger Leadership College , I will be based in a community church in Bestwood Park - a large council estate in the north of the city of Nottingham.
I’m so excited and honoured to be part of what is happening in the Bestwood area. The local church has recently attracted a number of young people (largely of African descent) and has also formed a youth worship band. For as long as I can remember I have served in church, more recently with young people, young adults and within worship. It feels like I have been divinely placed to influence this particular group of young people and help them grow in their faith and engagement.
As well as the very active placement I’ll be receiving weekly teaching on leadership, discipleship, character and culture. And also serving in other Younger Leadership College programs in the city.
By supporting this GoFundMe you will be supporting my accommodation costs including rent, utility bills and other related costs.
Ministry is something that has always interested me but I’m also an entrepreneur with many ideas and projects. For a long time I thought that I couldn’t do both. However I now realise that is it not an either or, it is possible to serve in ministry and build a business that gives back. It is possible to do both.
Thank you in advance for anything you can give, it truly means so much. Please give whatever you can, there is no gift that is too small. Thank you for your encouragement, time, prayers, contributions and supporting my Mission on my Doorstep.
Love + Light
Lauren
