Director: Savannah Ugan

The RiverStone Residency prepares young adults for long-term ministry through teaching, training, and hands-on experience. During these ten weeks, residents will participate in devotions, teachings, outreach, church services, small groups, mentoring, project development, and staff gatherings. To kick off the residency, we will join the 2025 Awakening Project Conference in Lexington, KY. Our final week of the residency is dedicated to reflection and celebration. The general schedule is Sunday mornings 9AM-12PM and Monday through Thursday 9AM-4PM. Occasional variations in the schedule will occur and many are predetermined. Residents receive a stipend of $3000.

Alumni Testimonials:

“I grew in so many ways during the residency, not only closer to God but also just growth in how to use these Kingdom tools AND growth in my overall knowledge of Jesus and His story. Each class grew me in new lengths and painted the whole picture of following God.”
“I feel like the parts of the residency that challenged me the most was kind of going out of my comfort zone and sharing my thoughts/questions with the group just because before the residency, I was never really confident or bold in expressing my faith and wisdom. But! Being in a place where I have constant people lifting me up along with many trial and error, I feel like I grew the most in gaining confidence in sharing what God has for me to share with others!”
“One of the best seasons of my life, and I’m so grateful I was invited into it! I truly feel so equipped to be a leader with all the spiritual wisdom/tools I’ve been given and it was just such a blessing to be fully submersed in the presence of God this summer. I am so blessed!”
