Interns
Changing the world one summer at a time.
Mission Interns serve for eight weeks as the hands and feet of Christ in poor, rural and urban communities. This is a paid internship. Â Interns provide children's programming and home repair while building relationships with those they serve. Interns are employees of the Michigan Area of the United Methodist Church.
