Harvest Apprenticeship Program
The Apprenticeship Program is an intentional discipleship program within the Church for young men and women. This 9-month Gap Year Program provides young adults post-high school with biblical training, spiritual formation, and ministry experiences.
Integrating both the day-to-day of practical ministry as well as cohort courses, Apprentices will grow: heart, mind, soul, and strength. Apprenticeship exists for formation during the transition, all for the glory of God.
Our main objectives for our Interns and Apprentices:
- Grow deeper Spiritual Roots in the soil of Christian community, watered by God’s Word.
- Develop a panoramic and practical understanding of the Bible, our place in history, and God’s work in and through our lives.
- Gain hands-on ministry experience within the local church.
- Go out from your selected program loving God, His Word, His Church, and His world — equipped to be better ambassadors for Christ, His kingdom, and His world, where ever God leads.
Transitional times are formative times. During the transition out of the teen years and into adulthood, young adults face pivotal questions about faith and life, about identity and direction. Watch this video to learn more about our heart for the Apprenticeship Program!
