Lisburn Internship

Join our team inviting the next generation to follow Jesus - (we'll have a laugh along the way too).

Exodus Lisburn

AN ENVIRONMENT PASSIONATE ABOUT JESUS

Strategically positioned in the heart of Lisburn our aim is to invite young people to follow Jesus, through events, schools work, mentoring and teams.  

Working alongside David and Kirsty, you will have the opportunity to serve in a fun, fast paced, Jesus-centred environment where you will:

  • Deliver Alpha courses and our new schools programme (SOAR) in a variety of Lisburn schools.
  • Plan and lead engaging programmes and events in our recently renovated venue throughout the year.
  • Harness your creativity through our vibrant Instagram account to inspire and engage the young people of Lisburn
  • Take ownership of our weekly outreach event - ‘Breakfast Club’, and develop our evangelistic vision by bringing your fresh and creative youth ministry ideas to life.
  • Journey with a group of young people on an Exodus Team and then go on an adventure to a foreign summer placement. 
  • Learn from and connect with other local youth workers at our monthly gatherings.
  • Mentor young people in Lisburn, opening up the bible and praying together with them. 
  • Be immersed in and soak up the fun, lively and passionate Lisburn community.                                                                            

Those joining the programme in Lisburn will also have the chance to serve alongside our team in Banbridge when opportunities arise.

Our Emerging Leaders Internships exist to raise up and release the next generation of disciple makers and youth ministry leaders.

Do you want to impact lives of hundreds of young people?
