Lauren is from Melbourne and grew up in a mission-focused family who wanted to see people know God's love. In chatting with Lauren we see how she went from studying to be a paramedic to studying at Sydney Missionary and Bible College and pursuing overseas mission. During this year she will be spending time at Church Missionary Society's mission training centre St Andrew's Hall with hopes to head to western Europe on mission.
