What Our Previous Interns Are Saying
Amy Blalock
Intern, Summer of 2020
"I sang at Eastlake with a group from LU and immediately liked it. I could sense the Holy Spirit in the service and knew there was something special about this church and it drew me to want to do an internship here. Not only did I get a lot of practical training for my specific area of ministry, but the staff also poured into me. I was able to work in different areas of ministry and get solid Biblical teaching from various members of the staff. Because of the internship, I was able to grow and develop not only in ministry but also in my walk with the Lord. I learned the importance and power of prayer in a way I had never learned. It is evident in the leading of the staff that they are deeply engaged in prayer, and they believe in its power. This truly helped me grow in my love for and practice of prayer."

"I knew I wanted to do a pastoral internship but wasn't sure where to start. I chatted with Daniel Henderson and he directed me to EastLake. After chatting with Pastor Troy and Pastor Jonathan, I fell in love with EastLake's vision to impact their local area for the glory of Christ. This internship helped me in understanding what a praying Church looks like. The devotion to prayer and the Scriptures is a beautiful picture of the heart of EastLake. God taught me throughout this internship how to love and care for His body in more practical ways. Two big lessons I took from this internship were 1) that you are never done growing in Christ and 2) the mission of Christ is bigger than you can ever imagine. This internship is an absolutely amazing opportunity to get your feet wet, sometimes drenched, in the mission of the local Church."
