Come join us this summer! The TMC Youth Internship program provides the opportunity to gain professional experience and marketable skills while serving and learning more about The Mother Church. Our summer internships have just been posted! The internships are designed to provide training opportunities for your field of study. We can design them to fit a wide variety of skills and experiences.

Who is Eligible to Apply

Internships are open to graduate and undergraduate students, 18-25 years of age, who are Mother Church members. TMC Youth is looking for compassionate spiritual thinkers who are proactive in their communities, churches, and on their university campuses. Above all, interns must share TMC Youth’s commitment to the healing mission of The Mother Church.

International students holding F-1 Visas are eligible for the internship program, subject to the approval of their respective colleges/universities and the obtaining of an Employment Authorization Document from the US Citizenship and Immigration Service covering the period of the internship program. International students requiring a J-1 Visa or other work authority are not eligible.

What Interns Do

Each internship is geared to the student’s field of study (for example, video production, web design, graphic design, legal assistant). They are placed with departments throughout The Mother Church. Most of the interns’ time will be dedicated to their sponsoring departments. However, twenty percent of their time will be spent:

  • Helping The Mother Church explore ways to engage youth
  • Exploring ways to increase youth participation with the Monitor and periodicals
  • Contributing and actively participating
  • Engaging in community outreach activities

Compensation

All interns receive the following compensation:

  • $800/month living stipend

  • An educational stipend of up to $3000, depending on the length of the internship, from the Albert Baker Fund
