We are so excited to have five - yes 5!! - interns, or rather 'Ministry Apprentices' as we are calling them on our programme this year!  We thank God that this is the most we’ve ever had!  We are delighted to introduce them. From left to right in the photo.  

• Emily is from the USA, and arrived in Leeds a few weeks ago. She is seconded to us from an American Mission agency and will be placed at Mosaic Church. 

• Natasha is from the UK and has just finished a degree at the University of Leeds.  She will do her placement at her home church - Blenheim Baptist.   

• Laura Ime (yes note the new married name!!) - Team Leader, who runs the programme.
