Ministry

L-R: Pastor Albert Gast, Teacher, Matthew Schirmer and Ministry Intern, Maddy Nyp at the recent Athletics Carnival ― enjoying a drinks break after helping with novelty events Internship

My name is Maddy Nyp, and I am the 2022 Ministry Intern at Cornerstone College. The Ministry team runs an internship program for graduated students to help develop skills and provide an opportunity for service. I graduated Cornerstone last year, and I am very excited to be back in this space for 2022. Through this internship, I hope to both further my knowledge of Christianity and develop my abilities. I was raised in a Lutheran environment, however I have always been interested in interrogating my faith further ― I am an inquisitive person, and have a lot of big questions! Moreover, through this internship I hope to hone my writing abilities, especially through developing Chapels with Pastor Al and Chaplain Andy. At the moment, I have been writing devotions, helping with staff activities and filming videos. I look forward to continuing to develop my skills and faith further. One of the main reasons I took up this internship was to serve. As a Christian, I have always found service to be a cornerstone of my faith. Service is the ultimate expression of the Lutheran ethos, and one that I pray I will properly fulfil through this opportunity. At this stage, I am at the College on Fridays. Please drop in and say hi. Maddy Nyp Ministry Intern

For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh but through love serve one another.
