NEP YAV Video and comments:

Seeing the faces of adversity: Young Adult Volunteers come face to face with some of the world’s most deep-seated problems. In this six-minute video Libby Hunter tells about working with youth in Northern Ireland who are dealing with religious and political strife, and Kori Phillips describes encounters with marginalized people in Peru. Both served in the Young Adult Volunteer program during 2006-2007.

NEP YAV Comments:

Sam Williams:-This program helped me think about how I want to live and work in the world and put my faith into action. How I experience God through service.

Tara Lentz- Even though there are a lot of things in this world which happen and we may or may not agree with, and which can seem unfair, there is always hope; and if God's people work in God's world, then we really can change things.

Patrick Hammontree - It is hard to think of all the ways the NEP program has shaped me and how my experiences in Nashville have helped me grow spiritually and recognize the presence of God in our world. The more I think about how I have been changed, the bigger the answer gets. The YAV program is one of the best things the Presbytery Church has going for it and more people need to be involved to help and serve God's people.
