Each year, the CUC DCE Program places interns in congregations all over the country. The DCE internship is a 12-month experience in the student’s final year, during which he or she works closely with a congregation's pastor(s), staff, boards, and various age groups. The focus of the intern’s preparation is experiencing as many facets of parish ministry as possible, especially in the area of Christian education. Internship is intended to enable the intern to experience the ministry rhythm of the congregation and to grow in his or her leadership abilities and ministry skills. Beside leading Christian education, some interns use their gifts in other ministry areas such as youth, music, small group, or family ministry.
