River Oak Church Student Ministry Summer Intern Application

The ROC Student Ministry Summer Internship is designed to encourage and equip those who feel the Lord calling them into future full-time ministry. The Student Staff hopes to do this by developing the Intern’s own walk with Christ and help the Intern grow as a preacher, planner, small group/Bible study leader, and as a discipler. The Intern will serve a special role in assisting the Student Ministry by building relationships with students and helping plan and implement weekly Student Ministry events.
