“I was grateful for the intentional care I received...  my supervisor showed genuine concern for my progress and spiritual growth during our meetings, and he has helped me become significantly more self-aware by mirroring the language I use and the feelings I express to him.”

– Dalen Small

“The wide variety of classes touched nearly every part of my life, illuminating my sin and God's holiness. I felt close to the Lord in ways I hadn't before, because I was learning all this information about Him, but also because I was processing it with Him.”

– Melissa Goldstein

“To be honest, this summer was challenging, but a good challenge. Not only did this internship provide the opportunity to learn more about God, but also to learn more about myself, specifically as a leader. I was put into roles that I had never been in before and asked to take on new responsibilities within the church. Being able to sit down with my supervisor and get honest feedback on how I handled those responsibilities helped me to better understand myself and the gifts that God has given me. “

– Jonathan Gaminde

“She challenged me when I didn't truly share or stayed in my comfort zone; she encouraged me when I was vulnerable. She offered a safe space for me! I loved the way she was able to speak into me, calling out things I didn't see in myself and encouraging me to lean into them!”

– Sarah Swoap
