WHAT DOES AN INTERNSHIP LOOK LIKE?
Well, that depends on where you feel God leading you!
If you don't feel a leading to a specific area, we recommend doing a "serve team tour" where our team leads will work with you to serve one month at a time in each ministry area learning some of the ins and outs so that you can determine which area fits your passion and gifting most.
If you feel a calling to a specific area:
Year 1 | Your area lead will have you jumping in to serve in a variety of ways throughout the year
Year 2 | You will continue serving in your Focus Area but will get many more opportunities to lead in a variety of ways
