Internships at Heritage
Equipping future church leaders
Our mission at Heritage College & Seminary is to glorify God through partnering with churches and parachurch organizations by providing a biblically-based education, equipping people for life in ministry in the church and in the world.
This is why we work with local churches and ministries to intentionally develop future pastoral and ministry leaders through our internship program. Our desire is to support churches and ministries to invest in future church leaders while equipping the next generation of pastors and ministry leaders to serve churches in Canada and around the world.
