WGM offers on-site internships in coaching, graphic design, marketing, web design, and writing in Marion, Indiana.
Do you want to be part of the big missions picture, reminding others of God’s call to serve Him and to do their part in fulfilling the Great Commission? Need an internship to fulfill your university graduation requirements? WGM offers on-site internships in coaching, graphic design, marketing, web design, and writing in Marion, Indiana.
You’ll get real projects with real deadlines—and work for real results. Here’s the breakdown of the internships:
Coaching: Learn more about your role in the Great Commission as a coaching intern. Work alongside our coaching team to help equip missionaries to build the ministry partnership teams they need to succeed. You’ll get an inside look at the non-profit missions world and receive life coaching sessions as part of this internship.
Graphic Design: Graphic design interns work with our staff graphic designer to create projects to encourage and inspire others. You will take ownership of your projects as you receive hands-on learning experience. All your projects will be used by WGM missionaries or staff members to promote the cause of missions worldwide.
Marketing: Marketing interns brainstorm, create, and support projects that will help individuals interested in missions answer the question, “How do I connect my passion with God’s heart?” You will also help people become aware of WGM, its ministries, and the ways they can be involved in global missions through giving and serving.
Web Design: As a web design intern, you will work on WGM’s official website, wgm.org. The site is an outlet for people to connect to WGM missionaries and ministries around the world. You will work with our communications team to help make the site more accessible, useful, and memorable.
Writing: WGM is looking for writers who want to use their God-given talents to share what God is doing around the world. You will enhance your writing skills while encouraging those on the mission field and inspiring others in their missions activity. Your projects will be used for print and online media, including The Call, WGM’s semi-annual magazine, and WGM’s official website, wgm.org.
No, WGM internships are unpaid, but you will walk away with plenty of experience. We are flexible and will work to meet all your internship requirements as well as make your experience with us a worthwhile investment.
Your job description and work assignments will be given to you when you arrive, but all your assignments will be used by WGM missionaries and staff to spread the cause of missions worldwide. Your assignments will require personal, hands-on attention and that will give you real-life experience in your designated field of interest.
Yes, we can work with your college, making sure all the necessary paperwork is filled out so you can earn college credit for your internship.
