Internship
Tapas, laughter, siestas, fiestas, and a “go-with-the flow” outlook on life – all trademarks of the culture in Southern Spain.
Vision
Since 1998, the Serge team has worked to bring about a movement of grace-empowered gospel communities in southern Spain, beginning with a church plant in the city. 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.
Help the teams prepare crafts, skits, etc for the camps.
Offer support in leading and coordinating camp volunteers.
Get to know and befriend Spanish locals and leaders through acts of service, time, and volunteering.
Worship together and get to know the members of our multi-cultural church plant.
Participate in prayer ministry.
Engage in Spanish language classes in the city (1-2 weeks) alongside a group of people from all over the world.
Possibly travel to another city in Spain and visit one of our teams and learn more about how the Lord is working there.
Study the “Gospel-Centered Life” curriculum in a small group setting.
Successful interns are usually curious about other cultures, have the courage to enter into unfamiliar situations, are interested in language-learning, are willing to step into a leadership role with the volunteers, have a heart for kids, are willing to build relationships with people who are very different from themselves, and are passionate about the local church and community.

VISION
The Serge team in Chile seeks to serve as a catalyst for growth, healing, and Gospel-understanding through word and deed ministries, among the people and churches in Chile and beyond.
OVERVIEW OF MINISTRY IN CHILE
Chile is a predominantly Catholic nation, however, the vast majority of people would consider themselves agnostic or “non-religious.” At the same time, a coldness has settled in evangelical churches where keeping the law has supplanted a deep and genuine love for God and others. People have lost the warmth of friendship and trust.
It is in this context that God has opened doors of ministry where we can come along-side of believers and non-believers and share the life giving message of God’s grace.
CHILE INTERNS WILL EXPERIENCE:
Cross-cultural training to prepare for working within a Latin American culture
Life in a Chilean host home where you are certain to become a part of their family
Gospel renewal, discipleship and equipping, so you can grow in your personal walk with Jesus as well as to be more effective in your personal ministry
Team building as well as exploring gifting and passions in ministry
Working along-side other missionaries and Chilean ministry leaders
Developing friendships with local believers and non-believers
Serving the people of Chile through practical service, friendship, and mentoring
Times of retreat and rest
Adventure and brisk weather – it will be their fall/winter
Love, friendship, great food, and spectacular scenery
Knowing Spanish is not a requirement, but having a foundational understanding would be beneficial

VISION
The team in North Africa exists to see the gospel of God’s grace move forward in North Africa through sharing the good news in the context of relationships, particularly through business for transformation.
OVERVIEW OF SERGE MINISTRY IN NORTH AFRICA
North Africa remains one of the world’s least-reached regions, with less than one-tenth of one percent of the population following Jesus.

Within the urban context of the capital city, the Serge team is committed to mentoring and developing future Christian workers for North Africa. Interns will walk alongside two-year apprentices and long-term team members as they serve the community in a variety of ways. Interns will develop cross-cultural relationships through homestays, camps, teaching English to university students, and meeting in cafes with friends in this warm North African context.
NORTH AFRICA BUSINESS AND ESL INTERNS WILL:
Be mentored in the gospel and cross-cultural work by staff with deep and varied experience
Learn Arabic in a classroom setting as well as through local relationships,
Grow in their knowledge and understanding of the region’s dominant religion

Serge partners with British South Asian leadership in Harrow to establish a service (seva)-orientated, culturally-understandable group (sangat, ‘ekklesia’) of Jesus-followers (Isu bhaktas) in the British South Asian context of North West London. Immerse yourself in the Hindu and Jain culture while seeing and being part of the shifting dynamic of first- and second-generation South Asian immigrants create a home in London.
SHEPHERDS BUSH
Serve in the Shepherds Bush community where London meets the world. New City church planted here is a dynamic and diverse community often representing over eight different cultures on a given Sunday. It is a culturally and economically diverse urban area in west London. Shepherd’s Bush has pockets of prosperity, a significant amount of poverty, and loads of diversity. Join with their outreach, service, homeless ministry, kids clubs, and more.
NORTH LONDON
Serve the North London community of Muswell Hill in a friendly independent evangelical church. The church seeks to serve their neighbors through job club, free legal advice, children’s programs and regular worship and Bible study.
SOUTH WEST LONDON
Serve at a small, multi-cultural church in a large government housing project in South West London. We emphasize contextualizing the Gospel for all the different kinds of people living in deprived areas in the UK. Join in door-to-door outreach, children’s activity outreaches, discipleship, Bible studies, and serving on Sunday with cooking, setting up and tearing down, drinking lots of tea, and chatting with people.
ALL LONDON INTERNS WILL:
Develop cross-cultural skills and receive personal mentoring and discipleship
Support the work of a local church
Gain a deeper understanding of the local culture and how that is expressed in church life
Take part in Bible studies/small groups

Be involved with community-based youth work
Help with parent toddler
Share the love of Jesus through street outreach
Helping to run Kid’s Clubs in the local community
Serving in various mercy ministries

“ Bhale Phatharia London MAA! ”
– Gujarati for “Welcome to London!”
Gujarati – one of the many languages you might hear spoken in this global city. London is perhaps one of the most diverse cities in the world. Serge has been active in London for more than 20 years, establishing church plants that seek to celebrate, share, and enjoy the gospel of Jesus in culturally understandable ways.

VISION
Students transformed by the gospel and propelled by grace to live lives of mission for the renewal and expansion of the church in Ireland, America, and beyond.
MINISTRY OVERVIEW
The Republic of Ireland is nominally a Catholic ‘faith’ country and culturally a majority Catholic country. 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

Who is the Apprenticeship in Ireland for?
Individuals with a love of learning, perseverance, honesty, vulnerability, social intelligence, teamwork, humility, gratitude, hope, humor, a servant’s heart, risk-takers, friendship-builders and a heart for the unchurched
College graduates
Followers of Jesus who are becoming Christ-dependent, Spirit-empowered, and passionate for the Kingdom of God — at home and abroad
Ordinary individuals who aren’t afraid to ask the questions, “What does it look like to lay down my life?” “What is my purpose?” and “How do I remain faithful to following Jesus for the long term?”
Believers who set aside their own cultural trappings in order to see the beauty of God as expressed in other cultures
People living out their calling to BE as well as their calling to DO, propelled by the grace of God with a posture of faith, hope and courage for the Gospel
Servant leaders immersed in an Irish ministry context which results in a community of mutual support, encouragement and hope
What Your Apprenticeship in Ireland Will Include
Teaching: (1) Exploring the significance of God given passions, interests and gifts in the discovery of one’s purpose and destiny to influence others and society for the glory of God. (2) Cross cultural ministry training. (3) Guided prayer retreats, monthly days of quiet and solitude and spiritual disciplines training (4) Engaging the unchurched with the gospel through relationships and evangelistic resources (5) Theology and practice of Christian leadership (6) Sonship and Gospel-Centered Life spiritual formation courses.
Experience: A cultural immersion and guided cross-cultural ministry experience in an Irish ministry context. Apprentices will work in a local church or non-profit ministry, with potential assignments in children’s/youth ministry, church-planting support, the creative arts, tutoring/mentoring, and more.

This allows for a significant immersion experience and has the benefit of deeper relationships and ministry in the host culture.
Discipleship: An Irish pastor or ministry leader will provide on-going discipleship within the context of the “job placement.” A Serge mentor will compliment this relationship throughout the year. The summer internship (8 weeks) will be under Serge leadership.
Leadership: Opportunities for leadership with both the summer internship and the year-round ministry placement will be abundant. 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.

Vision for London
We hope to see movements of churches peopled by followers of Christ who are Kingdom-minded, open-hearted, and practically skilled, whose involvement is contextualized, sacrificial, joyful, and sustainable.
A Multi-Cultural Hub
London is a vibrant multi-cultural city. Since World War II, millions of poor immigrants representing every populated continent have settled here. A few find a haven but most get a hard-knock financially strapped capital. London’s churches, emptied by the despair following World War I, are weak. Serge’s Apprenticeship seeks to equip and disciple new generations of leadership for desperately needed, kingdom-minded, grace-centered churches here in London and beyond.
The History of the Apprenticeship in London
In the year 2000, Serge admitted its first class of apprentices and soon thereafter began to also train local believers. In 2009, the program moved from Dublin, Ireland to London, where Americans join Brits and other internationals for a one to two year practicum in cross-cultural ministry. By supplying much needed short term workers, we seek to support a growing movement of new churches that serve Christ’s mission of reconciling the world to Himself. At the same time, we’re dedicated to giving our apprentices a solid missional framework, training in practical skills, and support as they transition into cross-cultural and full-on service. We also help them to see how personally laying hold of the Father’s love leads to active kingdom service and freedom to rest. We are learning, along with them, what it is like to lay down our lives for Christ in postmodern Europe.
Our Work
Equipping young leaders from many national, ethnic and cultural contexts.
Supplying like-minded church plants with short-term help.
Healing cultural breaches by practicing the love of Christ amongst ourselves.
Teaching apprentices to search the scripture and preach the Gospel to themselves and others daily.
The Serge business teams in North Africa focus on reaching Arabic-speaking populations with the gospel of God’s grace. Our desire is to see new believers raised up in areas where so little of the Lord’s light is recognized. We want to see the church grow in North Africa and foster relationships through development activities and Business for Transformation (B4T).
If you know someone who is interested, please send them our way (go@serge.org).

The Nairobi Apprentice program is a 15 month program.
Ministry and Culture
Approximately 3.5 million people live in the extremely diverse city of Nairobi. There are people from all over the world, from all faiths and economic statuses. One of the most unique aspects of city life is the juxtaposition of the modern world with old school traditions and ways. In a matter of minutes you will see new, bustling malls and highways with a traditionally dressed Maasai man herding his cattle across the road as well as mamas alongside the streets in little dukas selling bananas and everything else you can think of. Nairobi is home to one of the largest slums in the world, sitting right in the middle of new, expensive high rises and houses. You will hear a multitude of languages and experience a clash of cultures on every corner. This makes it an ideal location for apprentices to serve with an on-going Serge ministry while being immersed in the religions and cultures surrounding them. In light of this unique atmosphere, the team in Nairobi has the opportunity to bring the gospel to both unreached people groups and a church saturated culture. We seek to be living in constant dependence on Jesus, sharing his grace and bearing witness to the gospel to each other and those around us through transparent community and pursuing redemption in all things.
Who is Nairobi Apprenticeship Program for?
Individuals who are followers of Jesus and are becoming Christ-dependent, Spirit-Empowered, and passionate for the Kingdom of God – both at home and abroad
Those who are considering long-term international ministry.
People who have completed high school and have two years of independent living behind them.
Ordinary Individuals who aren’t afraid to ask questions and are prepared to be stripped down of what they they they understand about themselves and the cultures they have been and will be involved in.
Servant leaders who are desiring to be a part of a community and team that have a love for Nairobi and her people, and who want to see this city freed through the power of the Gospel.
People who are willing to be flexible and have a learner posture.
What to expect in a Serge Nairobi Apprenticeship Program?
Teaching: Curriculum includes study of the culture and religions in Nairobi, Evangelism, Prayer, Discipling others, and Studying the Bible among other things.
Experience: Apprentices will be immersed in the local culture and are guided in cross-cultural ministry.

Vision
The Serge Uganda team seeks to live as vessels of the gospel restoring communities to bring worshippers to Jesus. We value prayer and partnership, investing in emerging Ugandan leadership. We work together to show the compassion of Jesus to the poorest of the poor.
Overview of our Ministry in Uganda
The Serge Uganda Apprenticeship program contributes to the larger team purpose of testifying–by word and deed—to the gospel of God’s grace to Ugandans in the Bundibugyo region of Western Uganda.
We do this through discipleship and training in the local church and community. We are engaged in health outreach, medical care, clean water initiatives, nutrition programs, education and mobilizing laborers for the harvest.
We look for apprentices who are flexible, enthusiastic, and willing to be uncomfortable. Apprentices that thrive in our context have a team mentality, relational focus, heart to share Jesus in word and deed, sense of humor, adventurous spirit, and don’t mind a few creepy crawlies and outside bathrooms!
Uganda Apprentices will Experience:
Relational ministry through interaction with Ugandans and team members
Fellowship with Jesus as you serve Him among the poor
Shared cooking responsibilities
Sharing the love of Jesus in story and action
“Real” football with students
Praying with the team and the sick and struggling
Discipling youth
Engage the Culture:
Learn Lubwisi
Enjoy long church services filled with dancing and singing

Vision
The Serge Uganda team seeks to live as vessels of the gospel restoring communities to bring worshippers to Jesus. We value prayer and partnership, investing in emerging Ugandan leadership. We work together to show the compassion of Jesus to the poorest of the poor.
Overview of our Ministry in Uganda
The Serge Uganda Apprenticeship program contributes to the larger team purpose of testifying–by word and deed—to the gospel of God’s grace to Ugandans in the Bundibugyo region of Western Uganda.
We do this through discipleship and training in the local church and community. We are engaged in health outreach, medical care, clean water initiatives, nutrition programs, education and mobilizing laborers for the harvest.
We look for apprentices who are flexible, enthusiastic, and willing to be uncomfortable. Apprentices that thrive in our context have a team mentality, relational focus, heart to share Jesus in word and deed, sense of humor, adventurous spirit, and don’t mind a few creepy crawlies and outside bathrooms!
Uganda Apprentices will Experience:
Relational ministry through interaction with Ugandans and team members
Fellowship with Jesus as you serve Him among the poor
Shared cooking responsibilities
Sharing the love of Jesus in story and action
“Real” football with students
Praying with the team and the sick and struggling
Discipling youth

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.
