Catherine Burt, 34, of Portsmouth, Hampshire, joined Creative Missions’ team of church communication professionals, creatives and techies working with under-resourced churches to create sustainable solutions that better engage and communicate the gospel to their local communities.

The 30-strong team gave up a week of their time to help 15 to 20 churches in Baltimore, between 17 and 23 May. Catherine, who works as Media Co-ordinator for The Girls’ Brigade England & Wales and attends North End Baptist Church, previously joined the group on a trip to Alaska in 2013 (pictured).

She says ‘Creative Missions is a really innovative idea – using people’s God-given skills to help churches communicate better by producing logos, websites, social media, videos and photography. It’s a real privilege to have been selected for this year’s trip and to help bring the gospel alive for people.’

She adds ‘What’s really exciting is that Creative Missions are considering a trip to the UK to work with churches here.'
