titleSample Email for Potential Summer Intern Applicants

Hi (student),

We are so thankful to see how God has been using you this year. We are wondering if you would like to take a the next step toward leadership in the ministry.

How about spending your summer interning with us at [church or program name]?

Here’s some more info about our intern program (insert link). You’ll get practice in raising support and what it looks and feels like to be in full-time ministry. For many of you, this is a solid next step to help you decide if you want to come work with us at [church name].

Think it might be fun? We are accepting applications NOWIt’s good to go ahead and start your application even if you haven’t made up your mind yet about interning.

Things to know:

  • The Application: Start it now. The sooner you turn it in, the better!
    • Go to reliant-collegiate-program.breezy.hr, find our church, and click "Apply"
    • It’s helpful to send out your reference requests first since those take a few days to get back.
    • Be sure to complete all stages of the application. You will receive a confirmation email once you're application is complete.
  • Deadlines & Dates:
    • Nov. 27: All your documentation (including your application and references) has to be turned in no later than Nov. 27.
    • Dec. 7: Someone from our church will need to interview you by this date.
    • Dec. 30: Registration deadline for the intern training
    • Jan. 19-20, 2023: Virtual Collegiate Training. At this virtual training, you’ll learn how to cast vision and raise support for your internship.
    • The fundraising deadline is typically 2 weeks before the start of your internship.

Feel free to ask me if you have any questions.

If you need help with the application, contact Caleb at Reliant at LT@reliant.org He's happy to lend a hand!

Looking forward to spending the summer serving with you!

  • LT Directors, be prepared to give Reliant the LT payment amount for interns by December 16. This fee is necessary to calculate their support goal. 
  • LT interns do not pay for their LT fee directly. The Reliant summer intern program will do an internal transfer for their LT payment and they will only pay out of pocket if they have insufficient funds. See Event Fee Payments Made by Reliant Employee
  • The LT intern's application with Reliant (reliant-collegiate-program.breezy.hr) serves also as their LT participation application. They do not need to also fill out an LT Participation application like the other LT participants.  The Reliant LT Admin will manually add all accepted interns into to the LT program registration. 

...

A Volunteer Intern is one who interns at LT , but is not employed by Reliant. Another term for it might be Associate Intern. They will go through the same application process as regular LT applicants. However, they will additionally be asked to receive a background check as well as signing sign a few more additional forms than required by the normal LT applicant due to the role the volunteer will have with added leadership and responsibility within the program.  Those additional forms include the sexual harassment policy, code of conduct, statement of faith, and a statement acknowledging that they are not receiving medical insurance, workers worker's compensation, or other benefits. 


  • Application: Since the volunteer intern will be using the same application as regular LT applicants, the LT director will need to email the Reliant LT Admin (Caleb) to let them know that a volunteer intern is applying. Due to liability reasons, all volunteers will not be able to begin volunteering until the background check has been completed. 
    • Fee: The LT for which the applicant is applying will be charged for the background check. If the director chooses they may request to add an event program fee for the LT volunteer to pay as well (it is typically the same cost as the participants pay for LT).  That fee will be manually added to their event registration based on the director's request.  The director/finance administrator will also receive an invoice from the summer program coordinator to approve for the cost of the background check to be charged to their LT event fund. 

    • Submission Deadline: Since they will not be attending Intern Training, Volunteer Intern candidates must submit their application within enough time to take and receive the results of the background check back before they can begin volunteering for the program (usually a few weeks). 

  • Training: Volunteer interns are not required to attend intern training.
