Leaders

Ben Cooke & Eve Carlisle

Ben is “supposed to be” a 22 year old PhD student at Ulster University. He likes hiking, dogs and Ipswich
Town FC. Eve is a 20 year old Primary teaching student who (when she’s not pretending to be a tree for her degree) enjoys baking, a cup of tea and a good yap.

This will be Ben and Eve’s third Exodus Team together, having previously gone to the very exotic Texas and
the even more exotic ✨Banbridge✨!

They would love you to join their team, especially if you enjoy DMCs, random adventures and want to grow
deeper in your faith :)

Team Meetings

The Placement

Hungary // 11th - 21st July 2025

Welcome to Hungary!

You'll arrive at Budapest airport and be welcomed to Hungary by a member of the Exodus CEE Team.

All teams in Hungary kick-off with a launch. This a 48 hour experience that is often hosted at Freedom Springs; a historic off grid campsite. During this time you'll meet other Exodus teams, learn more about life in Hungary, learn from the Bible and go on some outdoor adventures!

After completing the launch programme, you'll be partnered with a local church and serve alongside a ministry leader. You'll stay with your host, typically in a home or church hall, and join their community for the week.

Teams typically lead kids clubs, undertake practical work or visit families in need. 

Hungary teams are ideal for anyone who is adventurous, has a heart to serve others and isn't afraid to try something new!

The Host

Hungary

Exodus partners with a range of ministry partners and hosts from across Hungary and into Slovakia.

Teams typically join a ministry leader for a week of children's and youth ministry, practical work and community service. Hungary teams are full of opportunities to make a difference, build friendships, explore a beautiful country and learn about a new culture.

Exodus has over 15 ministry partners within Hungary and details of your exact location and host will be released later on.

Story & Staff

The first Exodus team to Hungary went in 2013. Since then, our teams have been serving churches, ministries and families throughout the region. We now have a dedicated staff team, serving with Exodus across Central Eastern Europe, with a base in Budapest. 

Hungary is home to Exodus staff Andras, Mary, Samu & Laci!
