Description


Believing that a ministry to youth and families would both speak to the character of Milford and to our needs as a church plant, an intern will serve as a church planting/student ministry apprentice to minister to children and youth in Milford. The apprentice is responsible financially and administratively to CPC church with Curran Bishop and the Milford church plant being his point of contact.

The intern will split his time between theological training for pastoral ministry, an apprenticeship with Curran and the pastors of the Mission Anabaino collaborative and ministry to children and youth in the Milford area.

  • Theological training: the intern will pursue seminary training, either in a regional program he can access in person, or through a correspondence/hybrid program, at a rate of 2 classes per semester.
  • Apprenticeship: under the supervision of Curran Bishop, the intern will continue to be involved in developmental opportunities with the pastors, elders and lay leaders of CPC and the local Mission Anabaino collaborative.
  • Having come under care of the session of CPC and SNEP, the intern will continue to complete requirements for his internship which have been agreed upon by Curran (mentor) and the intern.
  • Ministry to children and youth: the intern will build relationships on the campuses of Milford schools, through a program like WyldLife, developing Christian outreach in elementary and middle school contexts. Youth and children will be regularly invited to church and given opportunities to serve the church. The intern will also be responsible to oversee volunteers in developing Christ Pres. Milford’s children’s and youth ministry. 


Salary: $60K-$89K
