LEAD
Interns are expected to be leaders in both the sustaining work of the local church and, as opportunities arise, in teaching or in leading a group, class, or ministry initiative.
LEARN
Fellowship Denver Interns are enrolled in a graduate-level course called "Ministry Foundations." This is for individuals who have a personal relationship with God, a love for local church ministry, and a desire to gain practical ministry experience.
SERVE
Interns are expected to be active participants in the life of the church and will be given a variety of opportunities to serve in recurring roles, to respond to needs that arise within the church, and to serve our surrounding community.
This internship gave me a church to call home. It challenged me to step out of my comfort zone but also was a time I felt deeply supported and encouraged in my personal walk with Jesus.
- Clare, Student Ministry Intern
Being an FDC intern has been an amazing and formative experience, learning under gifted and godly leaders! It's also helped show me the practical day to day of Christian ministry and has provided a complimentary arena of thought and practical application.
- Will, Mission and Discipleship Intern
Interning at Fellowship Denver helped me understand church ministry in a brand new way. I was so encouraged by the way the staff loved me, their community, and Jesus.
- Angi, Kids and Family Intern
Ministry foundations
Ministry Foundations, a graduate level course that runs the length of the academic year, is open to enrollment outside of the internship. This class is ideally suited to individuals in or pursuing vocational ministerial work within the local church or in other para-church ministry contexts.
