Caleb Mills is an intern at Fenton Park Bible Church, where he serves in their Kids Rally, church holiday programmes, the youth group, and street evangelism, all while doing some theological study under the guidance of one of the elders.
Pastor Tony Nuñez commented that the elders are delighted that Caleb has chosen to serve the church in these areas, and the more he has been freed up to serve, the more the church has seen the Lord’s hand is on his life.
Caleb says that the holiday programme weeks are usually the highlight of each term for him. In a recent programme, Caleb got to be a mad scientist in his time lab (pictured below right).
Caleb was also assigned the task of coming alongside the young men in the church to help in their discipleship.
Caleb reports,
“I wrestled a lot with working out a programme that would suit the few individuals in our small church and one that would encourage the fathers to continue to invest in their sons' growth. This has recently taken form and last term we started a fortnightly/monthly Sunday afternoon Bible study.
"This has been very successful, and we have already doubled in size. We have started by teaching through a little gospel primer written by our main teaching pastor.”
Caleb wants to continue developing character, doctrine, and skills to serve God faithfully. He says, “I want to serve with the same passion and focus as the Apostle Paul, who said, ‘Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God’.”
Fenton Park Bible Church was offered an internship support gift by Lichfield Lands in 2024, to support Caleb’s internship.
CCCNZ’s mission is inviting local churches to work together regionally to disciple and grow leaders, who serve, replenish, and plant churches. For that reason, we love seeing how churches are discipling and growing leaders.
