07 Sep Meet the Interns | Cultor House 2016-2017
Each year from August to May, Grace Church offers an internship called Cultor House. The internship provides recent college graduates with the opportunity to learn and work in the ministry structure, while also gaining experience in another part-time job. Interns also receive teaching and instruction from Grace Church pastors and staff. This year we have six Cultor House interns who have just graduated from college.
