ARISE & Lead
Internships
As part of our ‘ARISE and Lead’ Emerging Leaders training we are offering our Internship Programme. This is a year of immersing yourself in many aspects of the life of City Life Church as you explore God’s call upon your life and grow in your walk with Jesus.
At City Life Church
we believe that God’s plan from the very beginning was to ‘fill all things everywhere with himself’ (Ephesians 1v22-23 & 4:10), that is to see every person, and every part of our community, culture and society, and the wider world, shaped by the life-giving impact of the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ.
At City Life Church we are committed to partnering with God, and one another (as the church) to see this purpose that God has for His church fulfilled. We use the 5 core values of ARISE (see below) to help keep this purpose always before us.
The ARISE and Lead Interns will be part of the team at City Life Church, all of whom are tasked with leading and encouraging those they serve to take hold of this vision and join in the mission.
We seek to embrace, teach, model, and implement these core values in every area of our life together as a church. We also seek to encourage and equip every person linked to our church to individually take hold of this vision and mission in their day to day lives.
