EQUIP INTERNSHIP 2026

Equip Internship is a program designed to train the next generation of leaders for practical ministry. Over the course of 10 months, interns serve alongside ministry teams, learn from experienced leaders, and develop spiritual disciplines that shape character and calling.

Equip is more than a gap-year. It’s a place to discover your gifts and God-given purpose. Graduates will leave equipped with practical experience, a clearer sense of calling, and the confidence to serve. At Freedom Church, we believe everyone is called, and everyone has influence. Join us for a journey that will change your life.
