At the start of the seminary in the fall of 2010, FBC will have the capability to offer eight partially paid, part-time internships with housing provided for those who are in need of it. Priority will be given to those men who have been raised up in our ministry and demonstrate a call to pastoral ministry. However, if you are an individual desiring training at FBS but are not a part of FBC, you will have the following options.
1. Go through the application process as specified in Admissions Requirements and Procedures and you may still receive one of the four positions available.
2. If you are not admitted to one of FBC’s eight internship positions, you may be considered for an unpaid internship. FBC will not have the capability of hiring and providing housing for more than four interns and their families. However, FBC could accommodate unpaid interns who are financially independent (through the work of a spouse, or other financial means of support). The student would need to demonstrate that during the three years of training, his essential needs would be met by provision other than incurring debt or by his working in outside employment. Housing may or may not be available in this scenario depending upon the make-up of the single/married ratio of the interns of FBC. Admission to an unpaid position will be handled on a case-by-case basis. You are encouraged to speak directly to Brent Aucoin, FBS President at 765.448.1986, baucoin@fbclafayette.org.
