Internship Summary

An internship with LIFE Romania is more than a summer experience — it’s a spiritual, physical, and emotional challenge that will stretch you in the best way. We want to make the most of your unique gifts while you’re here, giving you every opportunity to serve and minister meaningfully. Below is a snapshot of what interns do throughout the summer. As you prepare, prayerfully consider where God is calling you to step in — and let the Holy Spirit lead the way.

Intern Expectations

  • Devoted Christ-follower and ready and willing to be pushed out of your comfort zone.

  • Will serve in Romania at one of our camps for three to ten weeks in the summer.

  • Willing to be challenged and stretched by the Holy Spirit.

Testimonials

My internship in Romania was incredible because I learned new skills in communication and also was challenged in my faith and reliance on God. My summer experience was an adventure in trusting the Lord and witnessing Him transform hearts.

Erin Grant, FLORIDA

I served as a summer intern for 5 years now. My time at LifeRomania has grown me in my faith and as an individual so much more than I would have ever expected. God never fails to take my expectations and blow them out of the water to show me something better.

Brittany Bunzey, NORTH CAROLINA

When Iulian originally asked me to consider interning, I said “no.” Thankfully, God worked in my life and made it clear the answer should be yes. I would not trade my summer in Romania for anything. God used that summer to teach me so much. I 100% recommend summer interning to everyone, it will change your life!
