The intern will work closely with grassroots efforts in other faith groups and non-faith groups as well to provide overall coordination.
Qualified applicants will have had experience working within immigrant communities and be fluent in Spanish. Applicants should have theological and/or missiological training and be able to write clear and publishable educational resources and Bible studies.
