Summer Residency

Looking for seasonal work in beautiful Telluride while being uniquely developed in your life of faith? We are accepting applications for Summer 2025.

The Alpine Chapel has a Seasonal Residency experience that gives the opportunity to learn to live out your faith in a complex secular environment. At the same time, the church comes alongside you and offers encouragement, discipleship, development and resources to further equip you in your walk and witness. The residents would have access and be trained by members of the Alpine Chapel who are some of the best thinkers and practitioners in areas of Leadership, Spiritual Growth, Faithful Work, Marketplace Ministry, Financial Stewardship, Evangelism, Vocational Ministry, etc.

Residents will work 30-40 hours per week at the resort and secure housing through the resort (see below). Each resident will commit to Sundays and Tuesdays for service, involvement, development, and training through The Alpine Chapel. This would include participation in church on Sunday mornings, classes after church, and committing to Tuesday night young adult meetings. Each resident will be given a mentor through the season as well.
