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.
Alistair McCracken - Personnel & Administrative Officer
Alistair grew up in East Belfast, studying Agricultural Economics and
Computing at University. He worked in a Further Education college for
5 years in a teaching and advisory role. During this time, he committed
his life to following Jesus and used his summer holidays doing short-
term mission teams to Romania. A growing sense of mission led him to
work overseas for 3 years as a teacher in a church run school in
Blantyre, Malawi. He returned to study theology at Bible college and is
now excited to be involved in mission work through Interserve Ireland.
