Summer 2024 Internship Program

Internship Description

Our internship program is part of our strategic plan to multiply next generation life-change and leaders. Interns will have the opportunity to engage and be developed in practical experience-based learning, relationship-driven urban neighborhood programs, and in a missional community.

The summer internship will go from May - August (specific dates TBD). The internship can be modified to be either a full-time or part-time work week.

Testimonies

 

“My leadership skills, life skills, personal discipleship, and learning how to run a youth ministry were challenged and developed greatly. I planned and purchased sound equipment, learned how to plan and teach bible lessons, grew in my personal relation with God through team devotionals, and even learned how to cook! I would highly recommend this internship to anyone who is passionate about youth/children’s ministry.”

Mark Prioleau (2023 Summer Intern)


“I would absolutely recommend the Mission Scranton Internship program! While it was definitely one of the hardest summers, I never regretted it, and I would do it again! I enjoyed the opportunities I had to grow, the people I was around, and the ways I was pushed to grow closer to God and others.”

Jared Hoskins (2022 Summer Intern)
