College Internship Program

The College Internship is a way for young people to explore, experience, and gain an education on the process of ministry as it relates to this church and the world. Interns will have the opportunity to see the rhythms of a church and to build a solid foundation of faith in Christ. The entire process- from observation to praxis- will allow participants to engage in ministry opportunities and refine one’s calling in the world. For more information about the internship program, please email Rev. Lindsey Runyan at [email protected].
In order to apply for this, you must complete the entire application. This includes the completion of this form, a one-minute video, a cover letter, and a resume uploaded to your application. If you have trouble uploading these documents, please email them to [email protected]. For more information, check out our website at am-umc.org/internship-program/.
