My calling...for now...What's your calling?!

Here are the basic overview details of what I will be doing for my internship in The Czech Republic this summer!!! I am so pumped. It will have been a year and two months since I was last there, and I can't wait to go back. Evangelism, discipleship, maturing, learning, growing, relationship building, team building...I am stoked.

Also, if you read this and think to yourself, "I would love to do this too!" You can!!! Let me know via email, phone call, or Facebook, and I can put you in touch with the people who will get the information and application to you. However, before you contact me and say, "I want in," take some time to pray about it, and put your heart in submission to God's heart, and if you get the sense that the Holy Spirit is saying, "Go for it!" then by all means, GO FOR IT!!!

Czech 2009 Summer Intern Fact Sheet – English

General Description

You will be involved in leading evangelistic English camps for high school and university-age students. The English camps are a vital tool in bringing the gospel to the youth in a relevant and relaxed environment. During the first month you will be involved in a week of training and visiting schools and youth groups to promote the camps and participate in a variety of youth ministry related activities. The next six-weeks are spent at camp. At the camps you will teach conversational English, build relationships with non-Christians through activities (sports and free time), lead small group evangelistic discussions, and help lead evening programs consisting of music, drama, games, and testimonies.

You will experience a balance of evangelism, discipleship, and leadership training of national students and youth leaders. This is a high-energy ministry that requires a great love for students. Be prepared for a very busy and draining schedule that will be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life!
