Pastoral Interns
Every summer and academic year we welcome into our life together students from Duke Divinity school who join us to learn, grow, and teach as they pursue a call to ministry.

Emma RankinMy name is Emma Rankin and I am a second-year at Duke Divinity School. I am from a small town in Louisiana and went to undergraduate at Louisiana Tech University. Upon my graduation, I was able to serve at the Wesley foundation on their campus for two years. During my time working for the organization, I realized that I wanted to continue to serve in ministry, so I came to Duke. I am excited about my time here at Duke Memorial UMC. I hope that during this time I not only learn how to be a great leader but how to be a faithful follower. Thank you for welcoming me into your community.

Mac AlbergottiHey everyone! My name is Mac, and I am a third year student at Duke Divinity School.
Before coming to Durham, I was a youth pastor and the director of a nonprofit in South Carolina. In the last few years, I have recognized a call to pursue pastoral ministry, which has brought me here to Duke. I'm so excited to be back at Duke Memorial this year, and I’m really looking forward to spending more time with all of you! Thanks for having me! |
