If you can answer yes to any of the above, then CrossRoads Missions’ internship program could be just what you’re seeking.
Have you figured out what you want from life? That’s OK if you haven’t; many people deal with this uncertainty, especially those in their late teens and early 20s. CrossRoads Missions offers volunteer opportunities to individuals and groups in several different geographic fields—with service in construction, medical missions, education, discipleship, evangelism, worship, and disaster relief. Part of what makes CrossRoads Missions work is the presence of full-time staff and interns in each of our fields.
CrossRoads Missions offers summer and yearlong internships for high school graduates and college-age students seeking to impact the world around them. Our interns join the cause of community transformation as they engage with our fields of service—as well as our work nationwide through Help Build Hope. Summer interns will have room, board, and a stipend to offset expenses. Yearlong interns will have assistance through fundraising support. Interns are engaged in the cause of community transformation and lead our group participants in construction-related activities, community events, community outreach, and relationship building. Our interns become the “face of CrossRoads Missions” to each volunteer group and lead the ministry efforts of the field with the participants.
Immersion – Whether they serve for a summer or a year, our interns dive into the community transformation efforts of CrossRoads Missions in each field of service.
Engagement – Our interns impact the world we live in by becoming part of the communities where they serve through construction, outreach, and community events.
Service – Our intern program is grounded in the core principles of CrossRoads Missions to impact communities one house, one family, and one neighborhood at a time.
Development – Our interns experience profound personal, spiritual, and professional growth, building life and work skills that will benefit them for years.
Our yearlong internships are available and can begin at any time of the year.
Summer internships begin in May and conclude in August.
Summer interns receive a $1,000 stipend, meals, and housing. Yearlong interns are assisted with fundraising to offset their food, housing, and secondary expenses. Summer interns are paid one lump sum at the end of their internship. Yearlong interns are assisted with fundraising to be paid monthly for the duration of their training.
Summer interns must make travel arrangements to and from Louisville, Ky, before and after the internship. CrossRoads Missions provides travel arrangements for all other summer internship needs.
Yearlong interns are required to have their transportation.
Applicants should submit an online application and written references and make themselves available for phone, video, or in-person interviews as needed. Intern applicants also must clear a background check.
