Applications open for summer volunteer placements in UK with us!

We are looking for 3-6 new summer placement volunteers for Summer 2014 (flexibly sometime between June, July, August, September) to come and live, work, worship and share our projects and ministries at The Dandelion Community, Manchester, UK. This can be teams or individuals age 18 and over - no upper age limit who are willing to form a small team alongside our existing volunteers. 
You will participate in community life 5 days a week including Sunday worship. You will be an active Christian in a christian community. You will offer 2 references - 1 personal and 1 from your christian community. You will be willing to listen, learn, lead, love and laugh! For further information please leave a message below and we will give you our email. Please share this information with those you think the Holy Spirit may call to become new friends - this is open to people from the UK and international community. Soon we will translate this post into mandarin and spanish so we are able to reach many more people however you will need to have basic conversational English to apply and will also need to be able to cover your international travel costs to get to Manchester. 
You will be offered an induction programme and tour of Manchester and the local area, accommodation, local travel expenses, some food, weekly days/times off, opportunity to travel in UK and Europe, a letter of invitation (should you need one) for a visa and regular supervision and support, opportunity to practice your English and make some long-lasting friendships.
