​A week in the life of Amy Heyes

In 2003, amid AS Levels with her university options set, there was a prayer Amy Heyes knew she needed to speak out: “God, if this isn’t what I should be doing next…let me know.” God answered and, in the summer of 2005, she landed at UDB (Urban Devotion Birmingham). She tells us what a typical week looks like, many years on from that moment.

Nearly 18 years from that prayer, on my heart is still for long-term, community-based youth work in urban communities. It is a joy to be part of a team as God-centred and passionate as mine in an area that has always been a part of my life.
