listen to your heart

At Going Public, we recognise what a sacrificial and difficult choice it is to give a year of your life to serve God.

Our first priority as an organisation is to look after you to the best of our ability. We want to see you grow, so we recognise you need to be well supported.

Mentoring

To ensure this happens, you will be assigned a trained mentor, who will be a more mature Christian from the church you are serving in, and who will make you their number one priority. They will help you reflect on your learning and experiences, they will ensure you’re doing ok in all areas of your life, and they’ll take you out for a coffee when you just need a break!

We hope that you will develop a close relationship with your mentor, and that you will learn from one another as you share your lives and experiences.

Being mentored can be challenging, but we expect it to be one of the most valuable experiences you have during your internship, and we hope that as a result you will leave Going Public understanding more about yourself and God’s plans for you.

Support structure

You will also have regular staff and team meetings, attend a small group in your placement church, and have regular individual reviews to ensure any problems you might have are swiftly dealt with.

All this means you should be well taken care of whilst you grow.
