Emily Menter

I grew up in Pickerington, OH, just twenty minutes SE of Columbus.  In June, I will be graduating with a degree in Fine Arts: Photography from The Ohio State University, and I’m excited to continue working in the art world, but in many other mediums as well.  When I’m not working on art, I am either listening, singing, playing, or dancing to music, working with the Fair Trade Organization, or hanging out at a church.  I know that God has amazing things in store for me and the other interns of the Abraham project, and I can’t wait to be a part of this awesome ministry.

Amanda Schroeder
Amanda is finishing her senior year at the University of Cincinnati; majoring in Food and Nutrition with a minor in chemistry.  She is the youngest of three girls and enjoys scrapbooking, reading interesting books, and spending time getting to know people.  Born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio; she enjoys cheering on the Bearcats!  She is extremely excited about calling Winston-Salem “home” and becoming an active part of the community!
