a student who has completed a year of Field Education, or its
equivalent, to serve the church in a "creative capacity." Stipend
is $5000 for the academic year. Our vital church has experienced steady
numerical growth for the past several years and has been energized by
several new groups and activities that point to the deepening of
spiritual life and outreach.(Engaging women's group; workcamp
experience in New Orleans; 6-week series on issues relating to
homosexuality and gay marriage in our church; working with
Student-Intern Greta MacRae, 2008 graduate of Andover Newton).

The details of the job-description will be negotiated with the
student, based upon: 1) The student's gifts and strengths; 2) Those
areas of ministry in which the student may seek to gain practical
experience; 3) Our church's stated needs(ie, meet with some of our
Boards and committees to help to plan and enact programs and
