Abiding Presence
College-Age
Interns
Interested in working with us this summer? Email Rev Kelsey Kresse, Pastor for Youth and College Age ministries.
Graduated high school seniors, college-age young adults and recent college graduates spend their summers on our summer camp team. They gather for daily devotions, dig deep into scripture through daily Bible Study, think about vocation and what God is calling them to do in the world while building relationships that will sustain them throughout the year. Graduated high school seniors make $15/hour. College-age interns (with at least one year of post high school experience) make $17/hour.
We understand that vacations happen and we are happy to be flexible around those dates. Contact Pastor Kelsey, Associate Pastor for Youth & College-Age Ministry with questions.
Abiding Presence had a fabulous summer of 2025 with our 26 college-age interns. Read all about what our interns were up to and how their lives were shaped by their experiences in our Summer 2025 Yearbook.
The Abiding Presence Internship Program offers intentional opportunities for:
Faith Formation
Vocational Discernment
Leadership Development
What began as a “pandemic pivot” in 2020 turned into a new and important way of being church.
If you are interested in a summer or semester internship experience, contact Pastor Kelsey Kresse, Associate Pastor for Youth and College-Age Ministry.
Maddie, one of our 2025 college-age interns, shares her summer story of how she has grown through the internship program.
