What is Mentoring? Faith mentoring for Lent is accompanying a youth through a study and getting to know them, offering your faith journey and praying alongside them. This year the study is on the Apostle’s Creed portion of the small catechism. You will be provided with a study guide. When our students get to the end of confirmation, they most often say that mentoring was the best experience of their education. Come join us this Lent and mentor a youth!
What is the commitment? Meet with a middle school youth a total of 5 times between February 22 and April 9 for 30-40 minutes at a time. The sessions will be at your own time and pace throughout Lent.
Feb 22: Mentor-Youth Match up after Ash Wednesday worship, about 7pm. Come for a short orientation and your first session with your youth (or just the orientation if you can’t do the session).
Between February 22 and April 9 (Easter!): Meet one on one or in pair groups (another mentor and mentee group) for 4 sessions (30ish minutes each). We suggest meeting for soup supper dinner and going to worship together. You can also choose a time that is mutually agreeable with the student and his/her parents.
