This is what real youth work does for a person:
One of the young people made this for me while at the Church of Ireland Holiday Club tonight out in Moygashel. (FYI, a "holiday club" put on by a church is basically VBS. We're helping the church out with it all week long, between the two Churches of Ireland--that being the denomination--in the community, St. Anne's in Dungannon and then the one out in the Moy, a wee village down the road.) The theme for the week is "Mission: Rescue", with all the lessons relating to the story of Moses and how the Israelites were rescued out of Egypt. But, along with that is a spy/mystery theme, which is why we had the wee kids (all primary school-age) make up spy badges. However, the girl who made this for me decided to take the spy badge templates and make a "licence to be ___" for each of the YFC interns. Mine, because of my great love for this country, was to be Northern Irish. And of this, I am quite proud.
