Interns are given the opportunity to serve as well as participate in small groups as well as events that reach young people. These areas are instrumental in practicing ministry on a weekly basis, & applying course content in a practical manner consistently. 

Throughout the year students are given the opportunity to attend & participate in conferences as well as major events. Some of these events include, but are not limited to: Men’s events, Women’s events, Leadership events, as well as other opportunities that come up within a given trimester. 

Interns have the opportunity to go on a two-week mission trip, once a year in alternating locations. One trip is located inside The United States & the other happens outside of United States. The basic needs for these trips are paid for through tuition costs, but additional fundraising is required. This is a part of their grade during a years time at ELI.
