"Seeing the crowds
harassed and helpless, Jesus urged his disciples, ‘Pray the Lord of the harvest
to send out laborers into his harvest." -Matthew
9:36-38
Countless
young people these days are seeking an authentic spiritual life, a context for
honest relationships, commitment to a cause worthy of a life's devotion. Reba's ten-week summer intern program and
nine-month apprentice program are ways to make an experiment of your life, to
see if Christian community is your calling.
Some
interns and apprentices return with their experiences to serve the church
communities where they have come from.
Others stay and get further training in the skills and wisdom needed to
launch new communities. And still others
chose to commit long-term and add their labor in the harvest at Reba.
The
intern and apprentice programs offer settings where you can become a fruitful
disciple of Jesus and a servant-leader of faith communities as you get to know
the needs of the city, your own God-given gifts, and other
saints-in-the-making.
