Marineview has always been a “sending” church, but we have a growing sense that God is calling us to participate more significantly in empowering and strengthening the church by helping to equip future leaders.
We want to provide mentorship and training for those who have been called to journey with our community long-term, as well as those who are with us for only a season, by helping train, bless, and send the next generation of people who will faithfully bring God’s message of restoration and reconciliation to our neighbourhood, this city, and the world.
One of the ways we are responding to this calling is through internships. In addition to offering a Regent College internship available to students in the MDiv. program, we are offering two one-year lay internships this year:
20 hrs / month - Starting Nov. 2023
Preach 8-10 times a year
Provide pastoral care visits
Build intentional relationships in the community through hospitality in various forms
20 hours / month - Starting Jan. 2024
Build relationships with the children and their families
Shepherd the children’s ministry volunteers
Support kids and youth to participate in whole church events
*Available as an intern position, or an associate pastor position (if candidate has pastoral experience)
