The summer 2008 Field Ministry Interns teams will serve eight weeks of teaching/learning through field assignments in Asia. These teams are designed to prepare the student for revelation of the calling of God to every sphere of society.

The Field Ministry Internship program is the principal ministry of Student Mobilization Centre and it offers university students unique opportunities for cross-cultural experiences related to their major fields of study.

In the summer of 2007, we had internship teams serve in Columbia, India, and Kenya. This field ministry internship helped students gain insight into how their field of study may be used to help minister to the poor and needy in the developing world through water and environmental resources, education, and health care.
