Details

The purpose of the Springforth Internship program is to provide an opportunity for young adults (and older high school students) to serve God by using their gifts at a high quality event. The internship program also will provide a place for young adults to be paired up with a more experienced individual to learn, and grow in an area they are gifted and passionate about.

It is our hope that through this experience, the young adults who serve will:

Gain a vision for the broader work of the church

Catch a vision of how they can use their gifts in their local church

Stay connected to the Body of Christ

Feel valued

Gain a sense of how God can use them outside of Springforth

Develop a network with those that they have served with
