I learned how to effectively lead a team and great as a Christian. I loved how each week had its own personality and new projects, allowing me to learn more about the city in which I live and the needs within. My favorite part of each project was listening to the story behind it: who we were helping, what their story was, and (most importantly) why what we were doing mattered. My favorite project would have to be helping prepare fro the construction of the B&O trail by clearing brush and tress (I won't ever forget when the third group came to help and walked up singing at the top of their lungs, bringing tons of energy with them). It was amazing to experience so many different things throughout the summer, and I would highly recommend this internship to anyone wanting to learn how to make an impact in their own communities. - Kaitlyn Beheler (Summer Intern 2021)

When I began Mission Indy this summer, I had no idea at all what I was getting into, but it soon became one of the most valuable experiences of my life.

Throughout this Summer, I have been blessed in so many ways, including through the gracious and warm nature of the Mission Indy staff.

Mission Indy taught me about life in the city, loving my neighbor, and how to use a chainsaw. The real lessons of Mission Indy, though, can't be taught. They had to be lived.

As I sit here and read about covalent and ionic bonding and chemistry, my mind tends to wander to other personal bonds that I have made, because, let's be real, personal bonds are more relevant than those chemistry ones, right? And they generally tend to last longer too. This past summer I had the awesome opportunity to be an intern at Mission Indy, an organization that teaches others how to serve, love and be the hands and feet of Jesus.

God used my time at Mission Indy to help me see the importance of the local church, and to reveal to me that there are many hearts and hands that are willing and ready to bless other people in their community. If you're looking for an environment that fosters community, mentorship and spiritual challenge, this is an invaluable opportunity for you.
