Year 2 / Internship

The 2nd Year program is about practical ‘on the job’ training. This course offers a look inside the innermost workings of Life Church’s local, national and international ministry. 2nd Year students have the opportunity to get ‘hands on’ involvement in various aspects of ministry which include Life Bible College, administration, youth work, street work (detached), community work, church (in-house) programmes, children's ministry, worship/music, media, pastoral services and missions. Experience working in these areas will help equip & mature you with insight and a greater understanding of how to build and develop a vibrant and healthy ministry.
