GIRLS NEEDED! CYM Formation Gap Year

At the end of the summer term CYM will be saying goodbye to our amazing and awesome team of interns. Darrell, Duncan, Emma and Mike have contributed so much to the team and it has been great to see them grow and develop as they have given a year serving God. 
 
proffessors1Here are some of the things they have said about their year:
 
‘This year has been a jammed packed, memory making, challenging adventure’
 
‘I’ve met so many fantastic people during the year with the different activities I’ve been involved in, it will be really hard to say goodbye to them’
 
‘I’ve learnt lots about myself and about where God wants to take me’
 
‘Time really does fly when you have fun!’ 
 
‘This year has been a fantastic experience and really helped me grow in my Christian faith’
 
‘This year has stretched me and I’ve learnt to go to God in all situations. It has been a great year with a great team!’ 
 
CYM are looking for young people (18-25ish) who would like to give a year to serve God and willing to be stretched and challenged in their faith. The year is an opportunity to get involved in all aspects of the work of CYM as well as an opportunity to explore and develop your thinking about God and children’s and youth ministry. The year really is about you discovering who you are in God and to grow and develop the gifts that God has given you. If you are considering taking a year out (especially if you are a girl!) or know of anyone who would benefit being part of the CYM year we would love to hear from you. 
 
cymOur training programme is also open to anyone involved in children’s and youth ministry who would like to develop their understanding of God and children’s and youth ministry. Topics covered include an introduction to children’s and youth ministry, biblical basis of mission, principles and practice of youthwork, issues in youthwork, postmodern youth culture, biblical leadership. Training is held every Wednesday as well as a week of intensive training at the beginning of each term.

are you not breaking the discrimination laws in th e heading 'Girls Needed'or is an exemption in place?

Both boys and girls are welcome to apply, there is no discrimination here.We need more young people altogether but as we already have 3 boys it would be good to balance this up a little with a few girls. So if you are a young person and want a fantastic GAP year then contact sarah@c-y-m.org.uk
