BGSU - H2O Bowling Green

H2O Bowling Green

We’re excited that you are considering joining us at H2O Bowling Green through Reliant! BGSU is a thriving campus. BGSU has broken its record for the largest freshman class in history for three consecutive years. Alongside this, we have seen our church continue to grow, with both a city and campus side, where we have witnessed God doing incredible things here.

Our church exists to help people find and follow Jesus together. We do this through our 3 Sunday morning services, our 15 campus life groups, and our 7 city groups. We have a huge heart and passion for the next generation, specifically on the college campus, and seeing people live their lives fully for Jesus.

We have opportunities for both paid and unpaid internships that can be 1 semester or 1 year long, as well as 2-year residencies that may lead to full-time staff positions. Our paid internships and residencies are support-based. These are custom-tailored to your gifts and passions, as well as the needs of our church. We have opportunities in the areas of: worship, pastoral development, tech/production, youth, kids, outreach, groups, and more. We would be happy to discuss what these opportunities could look like.

Reliant

Reliant is a faith-based nonprofit that partners with missional churches and Gospel-centered nonprofits to mobilize support-based missionaries for the Great Commission. Through Reliant, we provide missionaries with the resources, training, and support needed to thrive in their calling, including the critical process of raising financial and prayer support. Whether you're pursuing a short-term internship, a long-term residency, or a career in ministry, we are here to support and guide you every step of the way.

Here are a couple of quick thoughts to help you through the assessment process:

3. Moral Conduct - This assesses your emotional and character-based readiness for a role in ministry.
4. Local Interview - In this phase, you will do an interview with your church leadership.
5. Reliant Review - Reliant will review all the pieces of your application and create a summary to discuss with your local church.
6. Decision/Discernment - Reliant and your church will come together to make an employment decision.
   
7. Provisionally Accepted - If you are accepted onto staff, you will have the opportunity to accept your offer, if desired.
8. Onboarding - This will include online (and potentially in-person) training and HR paperwork. This is designed to prepare you to become a Reliant employee, as well as ready you to raise financial support.
