Job description

Position Type: Paid Internship
Duration: 1-Year Commitment (renewable for a 2nd year based on performance)
Eligibility: Ages 17-24
Department: Worship & Music Ministry
About the Opportunity
Church of the Holy Cross on Sullivan's is seeking a motivated young leader for a paid Worship & Music Internship. This is a hands-on, mentorship-driven role designed for someone discerning a call to vocational or volunteer worship leadership within the Church. Interns will be immersed in the rhythms of Anglican and liturgical worship while growing practically as a musician, leader, and team member.
This internship exists to raise up the next generation of worship leaders, equipping interns with the real-world skills and theological grounding needed to serve well in church plants, established parishes, or other ministry contexts after their time with us.
What You'll Develop
  • Leadership skills - learning to lead with humility, confidence, and pastoral sensitivity in a worship setting
  • Team management - collaborating with and helping coordinate musicians, vocalists, and volunteers
  • Song selection - understanding how to choose music that serves the liturgical calendar, the text of the service, and the congregation
  • Anglican/liturgical worship formation - growing in an understanding of historic, sacramental worship and how music serves the liturgy rather than the other way around
  • Musical ability - sharpening technical and expressive skill on your primary instrument or voice, with mentorship and regular practice goals

Time Commitment
  • Sundays: 3 of 4, or 4 of 5 Sundays each month, covering 2 services (approx. 4 hours per Sunday)
  • Meeting: A 1-hour weekly meeting with the Worship Director
  • Total: Approximately 5-6 hours per week

Must-Haves
  • An active, growing relationship with God as a follower of Jesus Christ
  • Intermediate ability in voice, guitar, or piano (please indicate your primary instrument)
  • A genuine willingness to learn, take feedback, and grow, prior liturgical experience is not required

The Goal
This internship is designed to be a launching pad. Our hope is that interns leave with the practical experience, theological foundation, and leadership confidence needed to step into worship ministry roles, whether helping plant a new church, joining the staff of an existing congregation, or continuing to serve and lead in their local church community.
How to Apply
Interested applicants should submit:
  • A brief statement of faith and testimony
  • A short video or audio sample showcasing your ability on voice, guitar, or piano
  • A note on why you're interested in worship ministry and what you hope to gain from this internship
