“I first heard about volunteer exchange programs in communities in the UK through Instagram. I became interested and decided to research more about it. During my search, I discovered Lee Abbey. When I learned about its values and mission, I realized they were deeply aligned with my own purpose.

“I was looking for a new experience in my life—essentially a change of life and place, as well as a way to strengthen my connection with God. And for me, Lee Abbey is the perfect place for that.

“My faith has been growing day by day, thanks to everything Lee Abbey offers: Bible studies, daily community prayers, and especially the place itself, which fosters an incredible connection with God through nature.

“I would say that Lee Abbey is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Life is never the same after being here. It’s a place where we build meaningful connections with amazing people—and most importantly, with God.”
