Staff Internship

The Staff Internship is an 18-month long program for those interested in diving deeper into their relationship with God while learning valuable skills for life and ministry work. Interns will work in both Ministry and Logistical areas of our centre throughout their time on this course as well as attend weekly Development Sessions to aid in their personal and professional growth. The Internship is an accredited program through the University of the Nations and the Australian Qualifications Framework.

During your time in our internship, students will have a chance to serve in various ministry roles. This could include staffing DTS or SWAP schools, joining our Refugee Ministry team, serving in The Prayer Room, or helping out with the Busking Festival team. Serving in ministry can be a challenging and rewarding experience that can lead you into a deeper relationship with and understanding of God.

Logistical

We believe God values and honors those who serve behind the scenes (John 13:14-17). At YWAM Toowoomba, you’ll find even our long term staff and leaders serving the base in practical, day to day needs. As an Intern, you’ll also have the privilege of serving our community in the practical needs of YWAM Toowoomba in one of our backbone ministries. Some areas you may serve in are: Kitchen, Hospitality, Media, Maintenance, & Administration.

Development Sessions

Although much of the Internship training is done with an ‘on the job’ approach, students also attend weekly training sessions with training on topics such as: Living like Jesus, Working in Teams, Evangelism, Biblical Worldview & Incorporating Worship and Prayer into Ministry.

By learning from many experienced YWAM leaders, as well as respected members of the ministry community, we are confident these sessions will give you the tools to thrive in life and ministry.

YWAM’s Staff Internship is for you if you:

• want to grow deeper in your relationship with God
• want to learn valuable and applicable leadership skills
• want to apply yourself in full-time ministry
• feel called to missions

We would love to have you join us for the Staff Internship!
