August 14, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – Are you passionate about fighting on the frontlines for Life, Faith, Family, and Freedom? Are you dismayed as the culture of death seems to engulf us? Are you discerning how the Lord is calling you to respond? Are you tired of sitting on the sidelines in this culture war and ready to make a stand?
LifeSiteNews wants you to join us for a special opportunity in the launching of our official internship program. We’re offering a university standard internship designed to recruit the next generation of leaders in the fight to restore Christian civilization. The Fall 2020 program will begin on September 3rd and run through December 11th, 2020.
LifeSite Interns will have the chance to serve alongside our amazingly gifted team of professionals on staff in various departments. Taking each of their respective skillsets, interns will also learn the tools of leadership directly from some of the most effective pro-life, pro-family, and Catholic advocates alive today. You will connect with others who share your passion for the faith and the restoration of culture.
The internship opens with an online conference hosted by our Co-Founders John-Henry Westen & Steve Jalsevac where they present the vision and mission of LifeSite when it comes to fighting in the culture war.
