Opportunities
The INN: Internship
Deadline Passed – 2024 Details Coming Soon
Engage in what God is doing in the lives of unreached immigrant communities in the United States with The INN (International Neighborhood Network). Our passion is to see the gospel proclaimed in cities where there is little-to-no gospel witness among unreached people groups that have found refuge in the U.S.
We do not want you to be a spectator but to participate in the great commission happening among unreached diaspora in the U.S. Discover more about the world as you serve people from different cultures and world religions. While this internship takes place in the U.S., the work is still very cross-cultural. Expect to be immersed in new languages, foods, and practices.
You will gain valuable, hands-on experience in cross-cultural ministry alongside long-term church planters. You will care for the sojourner (Deut. 10:18) and love and serve international neighbors through media, ESL, tutoring, youth activities, and more.

Ethnomusicology Internship
Deadline Passed – 2024 Details Coming Soon
World Team has been church planting in Cameroon for decades, and teams are working in five different villages and regions, meeting physical, educational, and spiritual needs. In this ethnomusicology internship, you will partner with our long-term church planting teams and help churches in Cameroon develop culturally relevant worship.
Interns will get to interact with two of the cultures we work amongst, the Baka and the Esimbi.

This will allow our full-time teammates to continue to disciple and encourage praise and honor to God within these church plants.
