YMCA Exeter TEN:10 Christian Internship
Our Project:

Our TEN:10 Internship is inspired by Jesus’ mandate in John 10v10, where he declares abundant life. Our vision is to support many of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged young people in our area, training and equipping young leaders to service in this way.
 
The 10-month internship offers hands-on experience in a Christian context that seek to support those on the margins of society as well as engage in theological reflection. Our vision is to empower and develop young adults to be excellently skilled, godly and servant hearted leaders who are passionate about sharing God’s love with a world in need.  They will impact both spiritually and practically upon the lives of the many disadvantaged and vulnerable people YMCA Exeter gets alongside each year.

Our TEN:10 Interns get involved in a variety YMCA Exeter services including, running schools activity courses to students at risk of exclusion, helping the unemployed gain the skills and confidence they need to find sustainment employment or training and supporting many of the young people who live with us in developing cooking schools, running sports group and leading creative art and music sessions.

Interns also receive a weekly training programme that combines practical theology with contextual reflection. They will share their experiences in working with vulnerable people, wrestle with biblical principles and be accountable to each other through support and prayer.  The 3 strands are called: Justice, Compassion and Jesus, Caring for Practical Needs and Christian Distinctiveness. Five times a year the interns join with many other youth work practitioners for professional development days run by South West Youth Ministries. As an organisation we can provide a wealth of experience as a reputable trainer of young adults.
