Be a Part of theStory
Thank you for your interest in our Early Childhood, Children, and Student Ministry Summer Internships! Christ Church is looking for individuals who are ready for an adventure. We need people who are passionate about serving kids and students and ultimately, Jesus Christ.
A summer internship at Christ Church is life-changing and rewarding, but also intense and tiring. Interns must be committed to God and the church. Each individual must be teachable and eager to grow. They must be willing to build relationships and have a love for children and adolescents. Interns must be ready to serve without recognition, be intentional about communication, and step into servant leadership roles over peers and adults. Interns must be good stewards of church resources. Flexibility and resourcefulness are key as interns encounter many unplanned and unexpected situations.
We desire interns who are willing to do what it takes to get the job done and who will honor God by giving their best. Most of all, we want our interns to live out our mission: Be like Jesus.
