Youth Ministry Team
Interview with Rachael McConnell - Youth Ministry Officer
What is your coolest secret talent?
My secret talent which isn’t so secret, is that I can shake my eyeballs.
What is your favourite colour and why?
My favourite colour is definitely pink!! I have always loved the colour pink, no matter the shade. I just think it is a really pretty colour and it can never not be pretty.
Why did you choose to apply for YMO this year?
I remember so clearly in Year 10 making the decision that I was going to be a YMO. It was such an easy decision for me. So, as my senior years came to an end, and the applications came out, I submitted it as soon as I possibly could. I’ve loved every minute of it so far, and I will be forever grateful for the opportunities the school have given me that have led me to where I am today.
When was a time you felt closest to God?
As a faith is, it is very up and down, however, after my first experience with God back in Year 9, Year 10 Retreat was definitely the closest I had ever felt to God. We were in Prayer teams and I remember feeling this wave of comfort flow over me. It is something I will never forget.
