Hope Chapel Internship Application

Thank you for your interest in Hope Chapel's intern program! Hope Chapel is a Christian, inter-denominational church with a mission to share the love of Jesus with the people of Maui that all may know and glorify God. Each year we select 12 single, college-age interns (19-26) who will be assigned to a ministry overseer whose gifts and talents compliment theirs. Our internship program will cover comprehensive exposure to all areas of ministry throughout the year. We believe that there is power in prayer, as you fill out this application we encourage you to pray through your answers and for the ministries at Hope Chapel during this process.

Once you begin, the application page will not time out as long as you keep your browser window open and remain connected to the Internet. You can use any browser to fill out your application except for Windows Explorer (Please use Chrome, Firefox, or Safari), otherwise, we may not receive your application. We recommend using a computer to fill out your application, as some of the questions have pull-down answers that are not accessible on mobile devices.

We also strongly encourage you to have two reference letters in PDF form ready to upload. See the references section for general guidelines. Both references will also be sent a separate questionnaire from us, which they will need to fill out before the interview process. Be in touch with your references to ensure that this is completed.

We're excited to read your application!
