Alongside professional development and communal living, Sojourners’ internship program prioritizes spiritual formation through educational seminars, spiritual retreats, and mentorship pairings. Seminar topics focus on the intersection between faith and justice, and this year have included politics as vocation, simple living, reflecting on MLK, and discerning spiritual gifts.
Three spiritual retreats over the course of the year emphasize a time of rest, reflection, and service. Interns also hold a weekly time of prayer to pray for their house, the neighborhood, and the world.
Finally, interns are paired with a mentor who can discuss spirituality as well as vocational discernment throughout each intern’s time at Sojourners.
