Internships


Explore Missions as an Intern

Discover your role in global missions, develop your skills, and discern the work God has prepared for you to do through an internship with MissioSERVE. Together, we will work with your local church leaders to design an internship that is right for you and prepare you to be effective on your mission.

Build your Internship

To serve alongside a missionary/national partner from your church

You want to serve alongside a missionary from your church and support their mission, but you feel unprepared and know you need training. You came to the right place! MissioSERVE is an Alliance for a reason and we love serving the church and its missionaries, even if they are not connected with us directly. Here are some next steps for you:

First, check out what we believe.

Next, get approval from your church and the missionary you desire to serve with to partner with MissioSERVE Alliance for this task.

Then, we will train and prepare you for the task to make sure you go as a disciple and that your service glorifies our Lord Jesus Christ.

For research or to fulfill an academic requirement

We understand that many college students seek internships to fulfill an academic requirement. If that’s you, we are here to help! MissioSERVE Alliance will work to accommodate any internship requirements from your school. If the requirements are beyond our means, we will let you know up front. Regardless of your school’s requirements, we will work hard to make sure your experience as an Intern will grow your faith, sharpen your focus on God’s mission, and show you how you can get involved.

To explore missions, no matter what your age.

Whether you desire to be a full-time missionary, or want to support and help send missionaries from your local church, an internship can help sharpen your skills, gifts, and knowledge to be an
effective goer, sender, or supporter in missions. If you think God is leading you to go (and your church to send you) into full-time missions, an internship with MissioSERVE is a great way to "test the waters" to confirm your calling and determine your readiness for the field. 

Internships are anywhere from 6 weeks to 12 months

6 Weeks

6 weeks is the shortest time frame for an internship, and to keep it that short there needs to be a compelling reason. If you are looking for something shorter than 6 weeks, consider a short term trip with your church.

7 Weeks - 3 Months

Are you looking for a Summer Internship? Our 3-month Internship can take place at any time of the year!

4 Months - 1 Year

If you are considering if career missions is right for you, then we recommend a longer internship of 4 to 12 months to test your readiness.

You and your church determine where you will serve, whether alongside your church’s existing missionaries/partners around the world, one of MissioSERVE’s missionaries/partners, or at our MissioSERVE Station in Florida.

Your Church Connections

First, check out what we believe. Then, evaluate compatible missionaries and/or national partners with your church leaders. Next, get approval from your church and the missionary you desire to serve with to partner with MissioSERVE Alliance for this task.
