Type: Campus Ministry, Church Planting, and Youth Ministry

We’re planting a church among the unreached and looking for an outgoing, adaptable, and adventurous intern to come to our beautiful tropical setting. Why not spend yourself for up to a year in a majority Muslim city? Bandung, a university city, is a trend-setter for Indonesian fashions and music. It nestles in the hills of Java and boasts a wonderful climate (80°+ days, 70° nights). It has millions of people, with thousands of migrant young people on the streets or in shelters. Families are big, too. People are friendly and love to try out their English. However, they are resistant to the gospel. You must be a learner, a self-starter who doesn’t need micro-management, and willing to work with and be accountable to a team. You’ll set up events, teach English (or at least hang out to speak English), and help design an ongoing youth program. A vital part of your task is building enduring relationships with youth and their connections. You can earn university internship credit if you supply the paperwork.
