Year-Long Internship
Why Intern for a Year?
The Amor Ministries internship is a year-long experience that provides personal exposure to the various aspects of missions, Amor's mission experience in particular. As a year-long intern, you will be immersed in a program tailored to your own interests within the variety of existing programs available within Amor Ministries.
As a year-long intern, you will receive personalized training, cross-cultural and multicultural experiences, and immediate feedback that will utilize and stretch your current talents and education. A core component to the year-long internship is coaching, which you will receive while serving at Amor. Andy Stanley, author of The Next Generation Leader, says, “Coaching enables a leader to go farther, faster.” At the completion of the Amor Ministries' year-long internship, you will be able to articulate your personal mission, implement conflict resolution strategies, name your personal leadership strengths, as well as create a vision for your future.
