How to Begin and Implement a Successful Teen Mentoring Ministry
(Seminar Series #6)
Oct 13 9:00 AM-10:30 AM
Sacramento

Everyone talks about mentoring, but sometimes the struggle isn’t about finding students who want to be mentored—it’s about finding capable mentors who are willing to work with them. What would you say if someone told you there’s an army of capable but untrained mentors right under your nose? This seminar will look at a simple process of training older teenagers to mentor the younger ones. And both the mentors and the mentorees will grow and be blessed! Join us as we discover how mentoring can be multiplied in your area of ministry.
