Be Bold in Your Faith – Apply Today to Young Adult Service Corps
For nearly 25 years the Young Adult Service Corps have trained and placed young adults from 21-35 for a year of service in placements across the Anglican Communion. The path to becoming a YASCer is spiritually intentional and rigorous, and the mission staff of The Episcopal Church walks alongside applicants before, during and after their year of service. Often young adults use their time in mission settings to discern and prepare for ministry, and others use it as an opportunity to gain experience to use in other professional settings. With nearly 25 years of placements, last year marked a milestone, when a member of one of the first classes +Austin Rios was consecrated bishop of California.
Who should apply and begin discernment?
