The Youth Exchange Program (YEP) is an international youth program under the auspices of BCC which consists of a year of Bible studies, work development and education in the Norwegian language and culture. This week there was an informal, but valuable farewell party for the year\u2019s participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The program is an important part of BCC\u2019s missionary work and creates good relationships between fellow believers from different parts of the world, as well as increasing knowledge and understanding of the gospel. The participants have been employed in BCC for one year, and this year a diverse group of 17 young people from eight countries was stationed at the head office in Oslo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the year, they gained work experience and skills useful to both their future careers and in their own local churches. In addition to participating in charitable work, they had various leisure activities, were part of local church life, received Bible instruction, and made friends from around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\nA good atmosphere with entertainment and sharing of many memories at the farewell party.

From India to Norway: developing IT skills at BCC<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Eunice Benjamin (25) is one who travelled a long way. She is originally from the city of Bangalore in southern India, and chose to spend two years on exchange in Norway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have several friends who participated in the program earlier, and when they came home after a year, I saw a positive change in them. They had new experiences, knowledge, and friends for life. That motivated me to go,\u201d says Eunice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the past year she worked with BCC\u2019s literature portal where she employed her IT skills to improve the user experience for those who read and search for literature.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEunice has used her IT skills to improve the user experience on the member portal.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition to everything she learned at work, she shared many experiences with other youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s been special to notice the unity we have had, even if we are very different. I think it is because we share the desire to live the same gospel. We also learn to be considerate, and to follow the Bible\u2019s direction to do good for each other,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Experience with TV production and film editing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Denzel Taves (20) from Vancouver, Canada is also one who arrived in Oslo last summer. He has worked for BCC\u2019s media department since August 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBefore I came, I had little experience with media and design programs. Now I have been involved in making animated films, editing, and producing live TV programs. These projects involve skills that I can use later, both in a work context and in my local church,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDenzel (second from right) says his year on YEP has been challenging and exciting, and that he made friends for life.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year he has lived with nine other boys participating in the youth program. He has learned a lot from living in a group from many different cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt has been both challenging and exciting. We are different personalities with unique backgrounds, but through this year we\u2019ve learned to value each other\u2019s talents and strengths, and I\u2019ve made friends for life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Encouragement to continue in a good direction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The year is coming to an end, and this week was a farewell party, which the youth arranged themselves. Many have gained new experience during the year, which came in useful during the party. Everyone contributed in different ways, in media, lighting and sound, food preparation, and entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Work leaders and volunteers who has helped arrange leisure activities for the program participants this year also attended the party. They had both good advice and encouraging words to share for the young people to take with them home.<\/p>\n\n\n\nJane and Andrew Courage have had responsibility for the group who worked in Oslo, and in many ways acted as \u201cmother and father\u201d for many youths this year.

Both photos and films were shown during the evening, bringing memories back. The youth participants also received the opportunity to express their thankfulness for each other and the year they had, and the evening ended with a slideshow of songs, pictures, and films which the youth had made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis year has meant a lot for me. It has helped to lay a foundation for my life, where I have gained a new and deeper understanding of the Bible and the help it gives me in my situations. Now it is up to me to put what I have heard and read into practice,\u201d says Denzel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
