Hannah Turner

Hannah is appointed under CBF’s newly revised Global Service Corps (GSC) program.  She will work alongside seasoned career field personnel, Marc and Kim Wyatt (Internationals North America Team) as Welcome House Ministry Assistant Coordinator. 

Welcome House is a temporary residence for refugee families awaiting long term, affordable housing in the NC Capital Region. Welcome House Raleigh is a collaboration between CBF Global Missions (Wyatts), CBF of NC, Crabtree Valley Baptist Church, area refugee agencies, local churches and businesses. Temporary housing is a practical way to bear witness to Jesus Christ through transformational ministry in relationship with local congregations. In addition to temporary housing, the ministry mobilizes churches and individuals for service in ESL, Preschool Readiness, Neighborhood Outreach, Recreation and Advocacy with refugees and immigrants in five Raleigh area communities

Each GSC volunteer enlists financial support from partners who contribute towards a simple living stipend and field housing costs.  Ministry and operational costs for their two-year assignment are borne by the Field Personnel unit that mentors them for the period of their apprenticeship.
