Bread of Life missions program seeks to admit interns who will best succeed in and benefit from a distinctly Christian environment, and way of life. To accept your appointment as an intern of BOL, you need to be prepared to meet the requirements of the program and, ultimately, the demands of a lifestyle of servant leadership. As a Christ-follower and a next generational leader, it is essential that you commit yourself wholeheartedly to achieving God’s highest purpose for your life. Only through a passionate and uncompromising obedience to His call will you be able to make a lasting and powerful impact in the world around you. We will nurture your calling within the program and do our best to help you fulfill that calling, but ultimately, you alone must decide whether you are willing to pay the cost of godliness.
The essence of who we choose to be and how we choose to live is embodied in our Core Values and Code of Ethics, respectively. As a Bread of Life intern, you will be required to abide by these established standards and guidelines (detailed below), which have been implemented to help you honor God in every area of your life and to grow spiritually, mentally, physically, and relationally. It is the central criterion of conduct for all who participate in Bread of Life’s Internship.
