Discipleship Opportunities for Young People

SEND’s two discipleship-focused internship programs, Engage and D House , give young adults a uniquely beneficial internship experience:

  • An opportunity for training in evangelism and disciple-making.
  • An opportunity to minister alongside experienced missionaries.
  • An introduction to practical life skills necessary for living in a foreign country.
  • An opportunity to discern whether God may be calling them into longer-term ministry, and what they need to do to prepare.

“I deeply appreciated learning from the missionaries. By spending time with them I got an understanding of what ministry is like and observed how they daily display the heart of Christ to the Japanese. – Braeden, D House Intern (Japan) from Alberta

“The D-house for me has been a totally transformative experience! I have learned so many ways to connect with God that have impacted my relationship with Him.” – Olivia, D House Intern (Spain) from Saskatchewan
