Resound Project College Intern - Application

Program Summary The College Internship Program is offered to qualified male and female candidates entering their junior or senior year of college who have demonstrated an interest in church leadership. The purpose of the program is to encourage interns’ growth in their vocational discernment, love for the church and understanding of Christian theology. The program provides a context for students to mature spiritually and discern their calling while worshipping and serving in the local church. The internship is designed so that students receive a substantial amount of relational and spiritual support from the local church and its members. Some of the interns may eventually attend seminary and pursue ordination as pastors. Others may serve on church staffs as administrators, ministry leaders, or as future elders, deacons or trustees.
