South Africa Newsletter, February
Internship at EMI South Africa
The office has been buzzing these past three weeks as we welcomed our 2026 Term interns.
After a full and demanding orientation period they are officially finding their feet, stepping into schedules, project trips, new rhythms, and the daily work of serving alongside our team. These first weeks have been filled with learning, adjusting often and settling in.
We are so glad to welcome our new group of interns into the EMI South Africa family:
Each of them brings a unique story, shaped by different cultures, countries, and experiences. From Germany to Zambia, South Africa, and Angola, their diversity adds richness to our team and we are grateful for the way God has already begun weaving them into our work and community.
As they move from orientation into the heart of their internships, we ask that you would pray with us. Pray for wisdom as they learn, resilience when things feel unfamiliar, humility in growth, and joy in the work set before them. May God carry them through this season and shape them in ways that last far beyond these upcoming months.
Looking ahead, we are opening applications for our Term 2 2026 internship. This opportunity is open to architecture and civil engineering graduates who are exploring how their skills can be used in service, learning and mission. If you know of someone who may be interested, we would love for you to share this opportunity with them.

Thank you for walking alongside us, for cheering on those who are learning, and for helping spread the word as we continue to develop people who serve with excellence and faith.
