Door Creek Church is excited about an internship and residency program that provides opportunities for those looking to explore vocational ministry. As a DCC Intern or Resident, you'll work with the Intern/Resident Team to find the best job for you. You will work with leadership and together, you'll craft an experience that aligns with the needs of DCC and use the God-given talents you possess.
According to Christianity Today, just 16% of current pastors are under 40, and a quarter of current pastors plan to retire in the next six years. The country will be facing a striking lack of qualified, experienced ministers. Seventy-nine percent of current pastors agree that “churches aren’t rising to their responsibilities to train up the next generation of Christian leaders. There is a nation-wide need for leadership development in the church.”
As a healthy church with experiential and ministry resources, we feel that responsibility, and want to meet that need. We are grateful for your financial gifts to assist us in training pastors and ministry leaders for vocational ministry. If you are able to help with housing for residents, please contact Steve.
