#05 Exodus Youth Worx: An Innovative Ministry for Youth in Crisis (Part 1)

Debbie Armanios is the director of Exodus Youth Worx (EYW) in Sydney, Australia. She is an amazing servant of God, she came into the Coptic Church as a young adult and fell in love with serving in many capacities, initially taking a great interest in serving in Kenya and South Africa with Metropolitan Antonios-Markos and bringing the Word of God to our African sisters and brothers. Then she began this ministry called Exodus Youth Worx, a Not-For-Profit Community Organization working with young people and families who are facing many challenges such as homelessness, drug and alcohol dependency, exclusion from school, unemployment, neglect and abuse. EYW also advocates for seniors and support victims of Domestic Violence and their families as they work to turn their lives around and overcome their personal challenges. Her care for those suffering from such matters is just phenomenal. She built this ministry from absolutely nothing, and was met with many resistances along her journey, and you will hear directly from Debbie about this. Please tune in for the next three Wednesdays and don’t miss out on this incredible and important work that needs to be repeated in so many other parts of the world.
