Christian Reformed World Relief Committee (CRWRC) International Staff Internships

The International Staff Internship is a 24-month entry level position for young adults whose hope in God motivates them to learn and serve beyond their present realities. Each internship will provide an “apprentice” type of experience in Christian community development at a grassroots level. Interns will have a chance to live and work with local communities in different parts of the world. Most profoundly, an international staff internship equips young adults to impact their future, no matter where their life’s journey takes them.

International Staff Interns will assist local partner organizations and churches in carrying out effective and appropriate community evel projects in a variety of areas: agriculture (includes environmental projects), income generation, health (development of primary health care activities) and/or education (literacy work). In diaconal projects, interns may be involved in helping to train leaders of local churches. All of this work is done through collaborations with indigenous groups.
