Have you ever thought about being a mentor to our confirmation age youth? What is a Faith Mentor you ask? A mentor is, “A Wise and Trusted Friend”. We hope that our Faith Mentors can provide our youth with another adult from the congregation that can have conversations around faith and building a relationship with God, living a Christian life, as well as, why it is important as Christians to serve and care for others.
We will be partnering male mentors with male confirmands, and female mentors with female confirmands. The content of mentor meetings will be communicated to all parents, and meetings will be held in public places where others will be present at all times. Safety and trust are keys to a good mentor and mentee relationship.
Some of our goals for our mentor partnerships this year include helping our students memorize an important scripture verse; to revise their faith statements; and talk about why we are confirmed and what life in church is like beyond confirmation. If you are interested in assisting as a mentor please fill out a Mentor Interest Sheet which can be found at the Welcome Center desk and return it to the church office. You can call Intern Corey Lange or Pastor Dan if you have additional questions. Thanks!
