Interns
Serve Germany – Abby Imchen
The Lord laid the horrifying reality of human trafficking on my heart during my freshman year of high school. Ever since, He has put the vision for a future ministry on my heart to actively help victims of trafficking and to help educate communities. I am so excited for this opportunity to work with The Justice Project in Germany!
Internship 2024 – Kate Imchen
When I came to know the brutal reality of human trafficking and its disregard on the sanctity of life, the Lord laid a passion on my heart to help spread awareness and put an end to it. Since then He has led me to this opportunity with The Justice Project, and I am so excited for what the Lord is going to do in this next season!
