Experiential Opportunities

Want to dive into an experience to help you clarify where God might be calling you? Try one of these paid summer internships working in poor and marginalized communities in the United States.  You’ll work, live in community with other program interns, and receive additional vocational training.

The Timothy Circle hosts resources and opportunities from a variety of faith perspectives.  We all have something to contribute!  But be aware that some of those perspectives may not match your own – especially in the areas of who should and shouldn’t preside in worship.  We trust you to do the research to know which resources and opportunities are the best fit for you.
