Over the next six weeks Fenway Church (fenwaychurch.org) is training four new interns who have given their time to the full-time, unpaid position of the Discipleship Training Project. Their purpose is to devote themselves to the Fenway area by establishing partnerships and relationships with the community. With that mindset, they have found their way to Operation P.E.A.C.E. Boston.
Three of the four interns (the fourth will be volunteering his time in Brighton) will be spending Tuesday and Thursday afternoons here at Operation P.E.A.C.E. volunteering by helping in the already existing programs and reaching out to the surrounding community. They will be helping during open access hours to provide help with basic computer instruction and volunteering with the After School students. Other tasks they will be doing include researching grants for Operation P.E.A.C.E., organizing events and more.
Intern Alexis Cupp is very happy to join Operation P.E.A.C.E. and loves helping people in the computer lab and working with the kids during the after school program. Brennan Cooke is especially excited to reach out to the community by raising awareness of what goes on at Operation P.E.A.C.E. and helping them market to local businesses. Kelsey Rae enjoys the close community of the people who work here as well as those who come in. She looks forward to getting to know the people here because sometimes it is challenging in the city.
