Partnered Ministry Settings

For ministry settings who have a formed partnership with a potential intern, this page provides information and the form for confirming the partnership based on ministry setting type: congregation or nonprofit.

Note: Congregations that offer nonprofit options may complete either application.

Use this tab when your ministry setting is new, has learning partner change(s), OR has NOT hosted an intern for the prior internship year.

To complete the student’s placement proposal with your congregational ministry setting:

  1. Select the clergy and lay learning partner who will participate in the learning partnership—intern, clergy partner, and lay partner. The contact person may or may not be a member of the learning team.
    • The clergy learning partner must meet religious affiliation or congregational standards for a pastoral leadership position, be in the current position for more than one year, and have completed a form of theological study at least one year prior to the start of a potential internship.
    • The lay learning partner must be someone dedicated to supporting this endeavor with their time and in sharing personal and setting insights and is not a professional theologian or minister.
  2. To provide the confirmation for the student’s placement proposal with your ministry setting, please download and complete the form PM&M Site Application-Agreement Form ~ Congregation and return it to the PM&M office (PMMAssistant@wesleyseminary.edu). To download, click on the document name (above), then select the “save” or “save as” button on the menu bar.

For sites providing an internship for a second student intern, please return the Site Multiple PMM Intern Plan as well as the confirmation form above. To download, click on the document name (above), then select the “save” or “save as” button on the menu bar.

Once all paperwork is received the ministry setting and then placement proposal will be considered.

Confirmation of placement with a ministry setting is emailed to the student copying the site’s contact and both learning partners.

Ministry settings are qualified to submit this site confirmation form, only if:

  2. The site learning partners are the same persons on the site’s current application-agreement that is on file in the PM&M office.

**If both of these conditions apply, then proceed; otherwise, use one of the two prior tabs that applies to your site type (congregation or nonprofit) to complete the site confirmation for the placement proposal.

With multiple interns who will engage with the same learning partners, please return the Site Multiple PMM Intern Plan as well as the confirmation form below.
