Description


Resurrection Community Church, a 3-year-old PCA church plant in Virginia Beach, has a great 10-week paid summer internship opportunity for young adults who love Jesus, kids, and sports, and have serious interest in future vocational ministry. The core of this internship is to be a “head counselor” in our SB2W summer sports camp program, leading the college and high school counselor team in running the day-to-day program at different church sites through the summer. In addition to the general ministry experience and personal growth and spiritual growth from summer camp, this internship can provide experience and training in church planting, evangelism, children’s ministry, student ministry, general pastoral ministry, and complex ministry programs. Jimmy Brock and Alejandro Romero, the pastoral staff of Resurrection and the senior camp leadership, have a wide range of experience in different ministry areas, and you will also have the opportunity to connect with and learn from a wide variety of pastoral and ministry leaders at Resurrection and other churches that host the camp. While the core of the summer work is being a head counselor, the remaining details of the internship will be customized to fit the needs of each intern.
