The Office of
Supervised Ministries would like to remind students who are starting to
make summer plans of three options for doing supervised ministries during the
summer. The office will host an
informational meeting early in the spring semester, but here is the information
now:
- Leadership for Public
Ministry is an internship course offered here at
Location: training in
Dates: May 21-August 3
Credit: 3 elective academic credits
Financial Aid available - Seminary Summer is
a paid internship program sponsored by the Interfaith Worker Justice, the
AFL-CIO and Change to Win unions. Students
will have the opportunity to learn about issues that impact workers,
network with religious and labor leaders, develop organizing and ministry
skills, and seek ways to include worker justice in their future
ministries.
Location: training in
Dates: June 10-August 17
Credit: 3 elective academic credits
Stipends, help with housing and transportation costs - Seminary Consortium for
Urban Pastoral Education (SCUPE) Summer Program is a paid internship
program in urban ministry, shaped around the biblical conception of
"principalities and powers," which are seen as decisive to
understanding pastoral issues in urban ministry, as well as to identifying
forces in the urban struggle that must be confronted. The SCUPE summer
program consists of an introductory two-week intensive course called Cross
Cultural Ministry followed by a nine-week full-time internship with a peer
group practicum.
Location: training and internships in
Dates: June 4 - August 10
Credit: 3 elective academic credits
Housing and financial support are generally available.
Preparing for Part-Time
Internships: Greetings
from the Office of Supervised Ministries!
The placement process for 2007-08
part-time internships will begin in late January, and all students will
receive more information about this at the start of next semester. In the meantime, if you have been harboring
desires of interning in a site that you think I may not know about, or if you
will want to intern in a church of a denomination that is under-represented at
YDS, this would be the time to tell me so that I can do some
relationship-building with potential supervisors between now and then. A list of sites already participating in my
program may be found at my website: www.yale.edu/divinity/sm/site_descriptions. Not all of these will participate in 07-08
but it is a fairly good representation of what is available.
Commuter Lockers message
from Eileen Kopjanski, Facilities Manager, and Patricia Ojeda,
Receptionist: If you have a commuter
locker you no longer need, please let Patricia Ojeda
know. There is a waiting list of
individuals hoping for a locker once one is free. You may contact Patricia Ojeda
by email (patricia.ojeda@yale.edu), by phone (432-6537), or by stopping by the
reception desk outside the bookstore.
Many thanks.
