What is Cross-Cultural Internship?
The Cross-Cultural Internship (CCI) is a two-year program designed as a first step for those passionate about reaching the next generation for Christ and feeling called to serve overseas with Word of Life. It’s ideal for individuals ready to dedicate two years to full-time ministry—whether as international participants or native Japanese called to serve within Japan.
To qualify, interns must have completed at least two years at Word of Life Bible Institute or a comparable Christian university.
During the internship, participants may serve in various ministries such as English Café outreach, children’s ministries, the SYME program, and other Word of Life Japan ministries—gaining valuable hands-on experience while making a lasting impact.
