Our mission of holy unity and discipleship is carried out through worship, study, and work in the St. Columba House and surrounding neighborhood. In order to become the next generation of lay and ordained church leaders, Interns share a common, balanced schedule with daily worship, meals, work and free time; weekly discipleship and leadership training and neighborhood events; and semi-annual retreats. These elements of the program ensure that Interns have the tools they need to live as mature Christians grounded in the catholic faith expressed by the Episcopal Church.
