sharing jesus with sydney and beyond
We dream of sending out more workers and leaders to make a gospel impact by sharing Jesus, far beyond our walls.
We are passionate about equipping people to serve God with their whole lives—whether that’s stepping into vocational ministry, pursuing theological study, or leading in the local church and serving in the workplace
What is Ministry Training?
Ministry Training is bigger than Vine Church. Recruiting and training the next generation of gospel workers is vital for reaching the millions of people in our country with the life, love and freedom Jesus offers.
At Vine Church, ministry training is at the heart of equipping people to serve God and His mission with their whole lives. Whether it’s stepping into vocational ministry, pursuing theological study, or leading in the local church and serving in the workplace, we are passionate about providing opportunities to grow and serve in meaningful ways.
We offer three key types of ministry training opportunities as a:
- Ministry Apprentice (MTS),
- Ministry Fellow (Intern)
- Ministry Student (Student Minister).
Each of these roles offers unique opportunities to grow in leadership, deepen your faith, and contribute to the mission of God. Whether you’re looking to take the first step into vocational ministry, gain practical experience while studying, or use your professional skills to serve within the church, there’s a place for you to get involved.
