We invite applications from seminary students who:

* Are preparing for ordained ministry within the Reformed and Presbyterian tradition.

* Affirm the authority and sufficiency of Scripture and the doctrines expressed in the historic Reformed confessions.

Whether you grew up in a small town or not, this internship will deepen your understanding of pastoral ministry in a rural context and help you discern where the Lord may be calling you.
