Internships

Tracks

Six unique internship tracks are currently available, all of which engage in three areas: reaching lost people, building up the local church, and personal development. 

Discover My Calling

Community Center Ministry

This internship emphasizes community center ministry in a predominantly North African neighborhood with an emphasis on hospitality, kids, families, conversation, and program development.

For interns pursuing long-term service in a French-language context. You'll invest most of your time in learning French in a classroom setting, with an emphasis on immediate and practical application.
