                                             Ian joined Interserve Ireland as National Director. Ian has a particular

                                               Lisa Skinner - Recruitment & Relations Manager

                                              

                                               Lisa has been working with Interserve Ireland since July 2008. She is

                                               from East Belfast where she continues to live with her husband Steve.

                                               Lisa grew up attending Bloomfield Presbyterian Church and while she

                                               made a profession of faith at a young age it has only been in recent

                                               years that she has come to appreciate what it means to be a follower

                                               of Christ. Lisa got her first taste of mission on a short-term team to

                                               the Dominican Republic in Summer 2003. Upon leaving Northumbria

                                               University she spent 4 months in Brazil, followed by a further 2 months

                                               in Ecuador on short-term teams. Despite having graduated in Law, Lisa

                                               felt that God was calling her to work of a different nature. After  returning from Latin America she found herself embarking on more study, this time at Union Theological College in Belfast where she studied for two years, graduating in 2008 with a Masters degree in Theology.


As Recruitment & Relations Manager Lisa seeks to build and maintain relationships with IS Partners,

supporters, sending Churches and families by providing support and encouragement. She is also

responsible for personnel; the recruitment of long and short-term partners and for the

development of our work throughout the island of Ireland.

                                               term mission teams to Romania. A growing sense of mission led him to
