ABWE Internships
A Chance to Discover and Learn
Internships are ideal for current students or graduates who want to pursue missions while still in school or early in their career. Though these formative experiences, interns will receive mentoring from veteran missionaries on the field and meet tangible needs on the team.
College is a time in your life when there are more crossroads than there are straightaways, and that is why our student program strives to provide as much information, guidance, and experience as possible to those considering a career in missions.
We want to help you experience new cultures, develop impactful relationships, and learn what it means to be a part of a real missionary team that is making an eternal difference.
We’re excited to help you identify your role in the Great Commission!
