Christian Encounter Ranch (CER) offers internships for committed Christians age 21 and older who love the Lord and are eager to serve others.  (United States citizenship is required.) Ministering to these hurting young people is both demanding and rewarding.  Students experience rapid growth, and interns develop additional spiritual maturity and endurance.  As servant-leaders, interns model the Christian life as they live and work alongside the students.  A staff of committed Christian professionals who have had many years of residential ministry experience provide guidance for the intern team. New interns receive one week of orientation, verbal and written instruction, and helpful direction and advice from senior interns.  Internships range from 90 days to 2 years. Each intern disciples one to three students and teaches group Bible studies on a rotation basis.  Interns are hard-working supervisors of the students and perform daily assignments that include practical activities--cooking, cleaning, and various maintenance tasks on our 86-acre campus (affectionately called “the Ranch”).  ​​ Interns also oversee a dorm room with two or three students.  Many teachable moments arise during the daily activities as well as during recreation times (e.g. boating, swimming, fishing, hiking, ball games, “hanging out,” etc.).  There are also various opportunities to minister in other ways according to interest and gifting. ​Depending on length of stay, interns may accompany the students on a wilderness trip (under staff guidance) in the high country of the Sierras: a two-week late summer backpack trip which includes rock climbing and rappelling, and/or a 4-day winter snow trip. These experiences foster teamwork and character development, and nearly everyone who goes on a trip returns having heard from the Lord in a deep way.   To apply, please go to:  https://www.christianencounter.org/request-info.html

Spain and Beyond The Serge team in Southern Spain, is focused on reaching out to immigrants and university students with the gospel of God’s grace. Our hope is to see new believers raised up from this part of the world where so little of His light is recognized. We want to see Him build His Church among them, both in Southern Spain as well as in their home countries.  Apprenticeship What’s the profile of an apprentice in Spain? In a nutshell, apprentices join our team for 20 months to be front-line learners, risk-takers, friendship-builders, and proclaimers of the good news. They provide much of the life and energy that propel our ministry outward and onward. And what do we hope Apprentices experience? The reality that God loves them with a love that propels risky living and bold proclaiming of the Gospel of God’s grace. What does that look like? It’s a mix of believing, learning, loving, and serving. Believing The gospel teaches us that we are not what we do, but that we have been given a new identity in Christ. The living God has brought us into a relationship with Himself and called us His children. This has many powerful consequences and benefits. The challenge to the apprentice is to believe this and allow it to change him or her. Learning One of the best tools an apprentice can bring is a learner’s posture. Priceless lessons await the apprentice in areas such as prayer, gospel-driven ministry, ministering out of weakness, life in community, evangelism, and the power of the gospel for everyday life. Apprentices will have the chance to explore these and other themes in the context of one-on-one mentoring, group training times, and daily living and ministering side-by-side with teammates. Loving As a team, we desire to step into the midst of the mess with the hurting and lost and lead them to the One who can heal and rescue them. We can do this only if we realize that we are broken and hurting people who have been healed and rescued by Jesus ourselves. Thus, the call to the apprentice – along with the rest of the team – is to throw himself upon the Father and to risk and love boldly out of the resources granted to us by His Spirit. We love because He first loved us! Serving Apprentices join something that is bigger than they are as individuals. They come into the context of a team and a greater community of believers with whom they are called to serve. This will often mean putting aside personal desires and needs in order to serve the bigger purposes and vision of the team and its ministry. This can only be done if we are secure in knowing who we are in Christ.

After the trauma of the institutional abuses of the Church and then rise and fall of the Celtic Tiger, Ireland has become a more inclusive country across historically sectarian lines. Opportunities for conversations and engagement around issues of faith is more inviting than ever. Views on faith among the Irish are becoming less cultural and more authentic and explicit as individuals either move away from the church completely or desire a deeper experience with God. Serge Ireland staff act as catalytic encouragers to see the Irish Church grow in the grace-filled gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ through facilitating church plants, encouraging Irish leaders, and bringing renewal through the truth of the gospel.   IRELAND INTERNS WILL EXPERIENCE: Cross-cultural training and cultural immersion among Irish university students and Irish church congregations Working side-by-side as a team with Irish interns, pastors, and ministry leaders Serving in an Irish church or mission context in the Republic of Ireland and/or Northern Ireland A guided retreat where you will learn and practice several spiritual disciplines of the Christian life Living in community with an emphasis on: Exploring the Word of God through a manuscript Bible study in the book of Galatians The transforming power of the gospel in the believer’s ongoing journey with Christ through the Serge Ireland Free to Love: Beloved Sent Ones Sonship course One-on-one spiritual mentoring Great food, great fun, and great friendships in one of the most beautiful settings on earth

There is a heavy emphasis on understanding biblical leadership and embracing the ways God has equipped all of us to influence others for the glory of God.

Through Bible studies, worship services, seminars, discipleship groups, and activities for kids and teens, a Christ-focused community is taking root. The team is also serving the local community in tangible ways through clothing exchanges and opportunities to learn English.   Interns will have the opportunity to join our team in advancing this vision/mission in some of the following ways: Serve and demonstrate love to children, teens, and families in southern Spain through the vehicle of our summer English camps.
