Fellow (College Ministry)

Seeking seniors graduating in 2024 or recent college graduates.

What if you could work with college students, be on a church staff, and receive intensive ministry mentorship while getting paid?

We’re seeking young adults interested in ministry. CCI’s 2-Year Fellowship Program is a ministry job that offers a chance to gain experience on campuses in Chicago and be trained in the classroom by teachers and pastors so that when you’re done, you’re ready for whatever God has next.

What Would I Actually do as a Fellow for CCI?

• Receive training in three classroom-style courses: 1) Evangelism and Discipleship, 2) Theology, and 3) Pastoral Skills
• Be apprenticed in how to do campus ministry
• Host student events (e.g. volleyball games, group activities)
• Do evangelism on campus
• Disciple college students
• Plan and lead a City Group (small group bible study) of college students
• Serve at a local church
• Walk intimately with Jesus by cultivating a robust prayer life, studying of God’s Word, walking in the power of the Holy Spirit, and living in community with other believers
• Raise support for prayer, salary, benefits, and ministry budget by gathering a support team through Ministry Partner Development (MPD)

You’ll Thrive in this Job if…

• You’re hungry for the mission of the global church
• You’re a humble leader who is eager to learn from others
• You’re people-smart and looking to gain experience in navigating ministry relationships better
