Please fill our the weekly summer intern report each Friday. Remember that this is not "homework." It is a chance to slow down and process what you have been doing this week. We also want to make sure you are being intentional with your time, goals and relationships. These updates will help you stay focused and on track for writing your research paper which is due at the end of your internship. This reporting applies only to the Ministry Research Internship (MRI).
