At °µÍø±¬ÁÏapp in San Francisco, you’ll join a cohort of students living in a 4-story home in the beautiful Pacific Heights neighborhood. The program provides opportunities for vocational discernment and professional connections across a wide range of disciplines through an 8-unit internship. While taking classes that connect directly with lived experiences, students will also work for organizations serving diverse populations across a range of professions. Join the unique experience of living independently in an urban setting while also benefiting from the support of a uniquely tight-knit community.
The WSF program is oriented around grappling with big questions concerning identity, faith, and community engagement. The cohort gathers weekly to engage these questions and how they connect with our spiritual formation and Christian faith journeys. Alumni report that their transformational experiences have profoundly shaped their professional life and worldview.
Applications for Spring, Mayterm, and Summer 2025 are now being accepted!

Meet the Team
With thirty years with °µÍø±¬ÁÏapp in San Francisco, Brad is the Associate Director of °µÍø±¬ÁÏapp in San Francisco and oversees student internships. He was a student in the program and has been a faculty member since 1990, thus providing him with a unique depth of insight and experience around what makes a semester in San Francisco so transformative.
Pie was drawn to work with the °µÍø±¬ÁÏapp in San Francisco program because of its alignment with her own ongoing journey of reconceptualizing practices of faith, as well as expectations of her twenties (and now thirties), and growing more open to the different forms of learning, relationships, and community that have shown up in unexpected places. She is thrilled to be working with students who make their way to San Francisco, and to journey with them as they revise and further develop their understandings for how to live as a person of faith and care in what often proves a challenging and complex world.
In June 2023, fresh out of °µÍø±¬ÁÏapp, Dylan became part of the °µÍø±¬ÁÏapp in San Francisco team. Drawing from her valuable experiences in the program during the fall of 2020 and summer of 2022, along with her various leadership positions at °µÍø±¬ÁÏapp, she smoothly transitioned into the role of Program Coordinator. With a passion for organization, problem-solving, and a willingness to explore new ideas, she is delighted to be back in San Francisco. Dylan eagerly anticipates fostering a strong sense of community among the residents of Jackson House.
