​Are you interested in spending a year:

• Exploring the intersection of faith, calling, and social issues
• Focusing on spiritual development
• Engaging in vocational discernment
• Learning about the urban church from local pastors and leaders
• Sharing your gifts through a placement at a local agency or ministry
• Experiencing other cultures while sharing your own with housemates and neighbors

Dwell gives you the opportunity for all these experiences and more!
If you are 19-30 years old and interested in dedicating a year to serving at an agency, growing your faith, and learning from housemates, neighbors, and local church leaders, then Dwell is the place for you!

A Dwell year will be stretching, joyful, challenging, and life-giving, sometimes all in one day. The Dwell experience will help you gain a sense of the vastness of God's kingdom and your place in it.
