Former interns on their internship in Canada:
"The entire experience was amazing, and I wouldn’t have traded it for the world. eMi gave me the opportunity to see how I can use my education to love people and serve His church. . . Living overseas and doing work like the work eMi does is now no longer some completely foreign concept. Instead, it is something that is possible, and I’ve seen other people who are doing it."
"eMi has really given me the opportunity to see that God can use all of us in His ministry with the gifts, talents, and education we have been blessed with -- no matter our age, field of study, or discipline. I witnessed this when I came back from my project trip and was able to use my engineering education to bring hope, new life, and the love of Christ to orphaned and abandoned children of El Salvador."
"I just wanted to thank all of you one more time for one of the best summers I have ever had.
I learned and experienced so much, and I became closer with my walk with God--all thanks to you guys."
"Fantastic experience, great friends, good memories"
"This summer I felt like God telling me that it's ok, that I can relax and have fun and still be doing work for the Lord (and oh boy, did I have a lot of fun this summer). It was an awesome blessing to work with eMi in the summer."
"My desire to serve in missions, and to encourage others to get into missions, has grown even more as I see the great need for people to step up"
"It was good engineering experience to work with AutoCAD and with the surveying equipment, and seeing the whole design process from start to
(almost) finish was really valuable"
