The PC(USA) Office of Public Witness in Washington D.C. has announced a new program, "Internship for Public Witness."
The program aims to develop servant leaders in the field of public policy ministry. "The Office of Public Witness is prioritizing our internship program in an effort to train a new generation of prophetic leaders" says the Rev. Dr. J. Herbert Nelson II, Director of Public Witness.
Interns will have the opportunity to "follow an issue or issue portfolio of interest through the legislative and decision-making process. In addition, they will also be exposed to other components of public policy ministry, which may include church relations, communications, resource development, and event planning."
As the program is unfunded, the Office of Public Witness is also looking for reciprocal partnerships with local churches and teaching institutions.
