Mentored Internship in Central Asia

**Application process closed for summer 2023. Please check back this fall to explore summer opportunities for 2024.**

Spend the summer growing to better understand the roots of the Christian faith and being stretched and trained to use your gifts in God's global mission! Our team, in partnership with local churches and ministries, will guide, support, and challenge you in a hands-on, mentored internship experience. Through discussion and an interactive format expect to learn about your kingdom gifts and calling, cross-cultural dynamics, and much more.

The people of this Central Asian nation are multicultural and easy to talk with. You will encounter a diversity of Islamic practices, as well as a rich, ancient Christian history. We will spend time in both a rural and urban setting, increasing your exposure to local unreached people groups and getting hands on experience in a wide range of ministry possibilities.

What sort of ministry possibilities? Since there’s really too much to do in one summer,  our activities will be tailored to the giftings of our group. But some options include a sports camp, community clean-up, student ministry, an ethnographic research project, teaching English, assist with local church ministry, or work with a handicraft store.
