Capital Interns is a two-year training program holding to a progressive training strategy, each year building upon the foundation of the previous year. Simply put, we equip, mobilize, and commission young people into their specific area of ministry. Capital Interns is a local church program designed to enrich the lives of every participant as they fulfill the calling of God. God has given us a local, national, and global strategy in fulfilling our mission.

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit

comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses,

telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem,

throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of

the earth.”

(Acts 1:8)

DAILYscheduleCapital Interns was developed to

facilitate the training concepts of

instruction, mentoring, and practical

experience. Everything we do is built

upon this foundation and prayer is

the mortar that holds it all together.

PRAYER 9:00am - 10:00amAt 9:00am sharp you’ll start your day seeking God in corporate prayer. Prayer is a vital part in the life of HU`�ILSPL]LY��0[�PZ�V\Y�ÄYT�JVU]PJ[PVU�[OH[�^L�JHU�KV�UV[OPUN�LMMLJ[P]LS`�V\[ZPKL�VM�WYH`LY��(Z�HU�0U[LYU�`V\�will join with our pastors as they train you in the area of prayer and intercession. You will learn to pray with a greater level of faith, passion, and clarity.

INSTRUCTION 10:00am - 12:30pmInstruction sessions include courses in biblical content, practical ministry, and relevant life issues that equip each Intern with foundational truths that build character and knowledge essential for Kingdom service. Our instructors are proven ministers with a passion to empower you toward a life of intimacy with Christ and Kingdom leadership.

MINISTRY TRACKS 1:30pm - 4:30pmYour afternoons will consist of serving in Ministry Tracks. Whether it’s involvement in creative design ministry, serving on our school campuses, community outreach, working with the GC kids, or serving in youth ministries, you’ll be involved in the heartbeat of a growing and thriving ministry. We believe that teaching and experience go hand-in-hand, and that the integration of information and application is the key to your success.

MENTORINGEach week you’ll be spending time building relationships and ministering in the context of small groups. It is a time to be mentored by some of our best leaders and to see your own leadership skills develop as you interact with others in life-giving, accountability relationships.

Ministry TracksAs a first year intern you will spend your year serving in various ministries and out-

reaches of Capital Christian Center. We believe that a significant portion of your leadership training can take place only in a “hands-on” environment. The Ministry

Tracks and training goals are listed below:

GENERATION CHURCH Over the span of 9 months, you will be trained in different aspects of youth ministry. This will not only include instruction in the “how-to’s” of ministry, but also the practical workings. You will have hands on experience learning how to; greet, communicate and welcome visitors, connect small group leaders with new people, follow up on new disciples, usher during conferences and services, participate and lead outreaches, as well as pray for and encourage people in their walk with Jesus

CHURCH ADMINISTRATION As a thriving local church with many branches of ministry, Capital Interns are able to be trained to serve PU�P[Z�HKTPUPZ[YH[PVU�HUK�THUHNLTLU[�Z`Z[LTZ��@V\�^PSS�IL�PU]VS]LK�PU�WYVQLJ[Z�Z\JO�HZ!�JVW`PUN��ÄSPUN��running errands, mailings, phone calls, answering e-mails, and other administrative tasks.

You will be a vital part of early morning prayer times with pastors and staff, as well as weekly prayer watches covering a variety of times.

INTERNSHIPexpectationI Timothy 4:12 “Let no one despise your youth, but be an

example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in

faith, in purity.” As a Capital Intern you are to be an example in

your speech, your lifestyle, your love for God and others, your

attitude of faith, and in your moral

purity.

Pledge of Honor | The Pledge of Honor outlines character choices and disciplines consistent with the lifestyle of a Capital Intern at Capital Christian Center. The framework for these expectations include: intimacy, character, authority, study, stewardship, health, faithfulness, purity, fellowship, leadership, focus, and excellence.

Relationships | This season is dedicated for the development of intimacy with God and His word. We ask our interns to set this time aside and focus on their training. Keeping this focus will maintain [OL�PU[LNYP[`�VM�[OPZ�WYVNYHT�HUK�WYV]PKL�̀ V\�̂ P[O�[OL�M\SS�ILULÄ[�VM�̂ OH[�[OPZ�WYVNYHT�̂ HZ�KLZPNULK�to produce.
