Media Summer Intern

Our summer interns help facilitate the programmatic, relational, and spiritual elements of our home-repair summer projects, our summer Kid’s Camp, and our mercy ministry partnerships. Our media intern will be responsible for capturing all of the awesome moments throughout the summer and then be responsible for producing a finished product and making it accessible to everyone! These participants will range from 6th-12th grades along with college students and adult leaders. Summer interns are paired with one of our local church partners for the duration of the summer where they fully participate in the life and ministry of that church.
