Ministry Internship (Summer 2025)

Applications received between Dec 16th - Jan 5th will be reviewed in 2025

JOB OVERVIEW
Preston Trail's 12-week internship program provides hands on experience in what it's like to work in ministry. Our interns play a big part in helping us fulfill our mission of helping people find and follow Jesus Christ.

Multiple intern spots are available, each providing a specific area of focus: Kids & Students, Community Outreach, Communications & Marketing, and Production.

Here's what you can expect:

• Be part of the team - You'll get the full, behind-the-scenes ministry experience as a key member of our staff.
• One-on-one mentorship - We've got your back, both professionally and spiritually, with a supervisor committed to your growth.
• Own your work - You'll take on real responsibilities, collaborate on projects, and get to share your ideas.
• Grow your gifts - We'll help you develop your unique skills, talents, and spiritual gifts.
• Leadership training - Weekly sessions to build your leadership skills and grow as a well-rounded Christian leader.
• Team-building & volunteer management - Learn how to work with teams and lead volunteers effectively.

By the end of the summer, we're praying that you'll have a clearer picture of ministry, a deeper understanding of yourself, and more insight into God's plan for your future.
