Job Description
FCA Internship Program Overview
The FCA Internship experience is specifically designed to develop student-athletes in discerning their calling and career path, while simultaneously introducing them to various aspects of ministry within the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA).
FCA Interns serve as collegiate volunteers, engaging in a structured learning and developmental ministry experience over a summer or a semester. It’s important to note that Interns serving with FCA are not employees and do not receive hourly compensation or payment for production of work. However, Interns may be eligible to receive a nominal stipend to assist with living-related expenses during the duration of their internship.
While specific FCA internship experiences may vary by location, the overarching and primary goal of every internship is to develop the intern’s understanding of their individual calling to ministry through hands-on training and practical experience. For more detailed information about a specific internship opportunity, please contact the FCA staff associated with this posting.
