The 3E Internship is a 12-month Christ-centered gap year rooted in Equip, Empower, and Extend. It blends spiritual formation, leadership development, missional service, travel, and community life. It is based at Youth Farm Bible Camp in Saskatchewan and includes national and international ministry experiences.

Interns don’t just study or serve, they live the rhythm of discipleship through work, worship, wilderness, and relationship.
