Our church has the heart and desire to equip the next generation church. That begins in the nursery all the way through High School. We minister to and through our church family, challenging the coming generation to lead the church and accomplish great things for the Lord.
This heart and mindset are one of the reasons why we also desire to invest in equipping the next generation of pastors. In many fields, it is recommended and required to take a season to learn along with others. It provides an opportunity to practically apply what one has learned, along with an environment to ask questions and engage with others in a similar field.
Consider what we have to offer and pray about whether this may be where God would lead you.
We offer our interns the opportunity to work on their preaching as well as multiple opportunities for teaching at various levels. Our interns work alongside our pastor, the elders, and deacons, who have years of experience leading our church.
As an intern, you will be developing relationships & ministering with the elder team, our deacons, and other pastors in the area and valley. It is a great reminder that we engage in the work of ministry not alone but with others in His Church!
Our internship program incorporates the necessary time and process for reflecting on completed and pending ministry efforts, as well as looking ahead. These times give a great opportunity for questions and dialogue concerning the
practical ministry experience.
We offer a one-week intensive opportunity for you to come to our church and get a taste and idea of how our church family engages in the work of ministry and what the possibilities of ministry could be over a year-long internship.
May & June offer exciting times in our church family as we wrap up some ministries and engage in some fresh summer ministries. This is about a six-week chance to minister with the leadership and engage in great community outreach.
This is an opportunity to experience what ministry looks like day to day and month to month. Shadow the pastor, preach from God's Word, teach God's people. Discover the many aspects of ministry that cannot be learned in a classroom.
We understand that these options may not be a fit for everyone. We are open to talking with you and discovering if there is an option that can work for our church family and your desire to do an internship.

Our church is located in the mountain valley of Parachute, CO. It is a community of around 6000 residents. For a majority of our residents, Parachute is a bedroom community for those who work further up valley towards Glenwood, Aspen and Eagle Colorado. The others who work more locally are usually working in the oil fields or within the school district.
We have a large number Spanish speaking individuals in our community that we long to see have a relationship with Christ. Because of this we have planted a Spanish speaking church in the heart of Parachute. Our interns will have opportunity to be a part of this and see both sides of church planting first hand.

Your housing and utilities will be provided during your time interning with us. A family in our church has graciously built a home on their property for our Intern Program. This allows us to provide a home for an individual or a couple starting out, during their stay with us!
Our desire as a church is to help offset any financial needs so you are able to invest in the ministry work even further and in greater depth.

We may not know your name, or even met you yet, but rest assured our church is praying!
Each intern that God brings to our church family is an answer to prayer.
We are encouraged how God will answer next. Please pray for us in this process as well.
THANK YOU!
