Ministry Responsibilities & Duties
Youth Ministry Development:
“..when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.” Ephesians 4:16

This internship will expose the individual to many aspects of ministry, leadership, communication, discipleship, organization, speaking, planning, and more through:
● Planning and running youth events (Youth group, fun hangouts, etc)
● Teaching the youth
● Running small groups
● Helping to run a Sunday School Class for youth
● Building relationships with students
● Administrative tasks
● Participating in weekly staff meetings

Personal Development:
“And Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and man.” Matthew 2:52

Our hope is that ministry is used to build into young leaders, rather than simply using young leaders to build our ministry. We believe the gospel is the power of God for a salvation that is continual as God sanctifies those he has justified – all through the finished work of Jesus Christ. A major hope for the Youth Ministry Internship is to see this sanctification take place through relationship with the leadership at Park Road.

● Book discussion with supervisor
● Develop a rhythm of work and rest that is glorifying to God
● Intentionally invest in 3 people inside the church (list out specific people)
● Intentionally invest in 3 people outside the church (list out specific people)
