Mission Intern Program – United Methodist
The Mission Intern Program is a leadership development and social justice opportunity for young adults (20-30 years old).

It is an opportunity for young people to hear the prophetic voice of communities and individuals around the world who are working for systemic change and to apply that experiential learning to their home context.
