What I liked

I was able to help and serve even during the pandemic. I got to help plan and assist with both in-person and online events. I got to live in an apartment with other interns and form close relationships.

What I wish was different

Even though my summer was incredible, it would have been cool if I had gotten to experience the normal summer schedule.

Advice

You get out of this internship what you put in.

Ministerial Assistant

May - August 2020 • Memphis, TN

What I liked

Bellevue does things well and they expected us to do things well, but they showed us how to and helped us meet that standard. They create a space for growth, and truly desire to equip future ministry leaders well.

What I wish was different

This past summer, because of COVID, ministry looked very different. While I do wish I had gotten to experience a normal summer at Bellevue, I'm thankful for such a unique opportunity.

Advice

This experience grew me more than I can describe. I know the Lord is at work in Memphis, and I know that He is using Bellevue and the many others that they partner with to accomplish that work there. If you want to go into ministry, Bellevue is a great place to be equipped to do that well.
