Pat Hyland - Mentoring Ex-Prisoners
Recently a door did finally open and I will be working 2 days a week in the Office (doing the financial and other admin stuff) for a Christian Charity organisation which deals with prisoners and ex-prisoners. As well as doing the office work, I hope to be involved in mentoring ex-prisoners on a one to one basis. I'm really excited about getting back to office work and especially the mentoring.
I know that my time with IBI and especially my two Semesters on 'Pastoral Care' have prepared me for this next stage of my life. So, I just wanted to say thanks to you the staff of IBI and the lecturers for preparing me for this exciting adventure. I began and finished my time with IBI without much clue of what it was preparing me for but I need not to have been concerned as God has prepared the way ahead though we may not see it at the time.
