Mentorship Changes Everything
Mentor Connect helps facilitate genuine, Christ-centered relationships that change the life of a child and our mentors.
What is Mentoring?
We aren’t calling perfect people to do the impossible. We’re inviting ordinary people to make an extraordinary difference in a child’s life by doing what Jesus did – walking with, modeling for, and loving someone near him. This difference is not only seen in the life of our mentees, but also profoundly impacts our mentors.
We’ve designed Mentor Connect to create a more community-oriented, effective, and manageable program for our mentors, which includes:
- A defined 9-month calendar that aligns with the school year
- Monthly group sessions where you’ll be in community with other mentors and students
- Enhanced support structure with regular staff presence and meetings at schools
- Supporting Curriculum that builds on your mentoring strengths and helps guide conversations

Our Mentoring Strategy
Our Mentor Connect programs offer training, curriculum, and a supporting community that helps our mentors get the most from their relationships and create connections that last a lifetime.
The impact of mentoring goes farther than you think.
Mentoring not only impacts the child being mentored, but their family, community, and our mentors. It’s a ripple effect for positive change, including:
- Brighter future – Helping boost confidence and academic success can change the trajectory of a child’s future, impacting their future communities and families as well.
- Stronger community – Churches, schools, and families working together and raising up the next generation
- Unity in Christ – Individuals of different ages, culture,s and backgrounds build mutual understanding as they walk alongside each other.
- Spiritual growth – a child’s spiritual growth develops strong roots that impact them well into the future, which can make a lasting impact for generations. Our mentors experience spiritual growth through serving families in our communities.
God was using me to impact the life of a child.
“I was a bit hesitant to become a mentor, but quickly became aware that God was using me to impact the life of a child and that He was using that child to impact mine.”

What our Mentors Are saying
We’re not designed to do life alone.
God designed us for community. People are supposed to help people. You have something to give, but you also have something that you need. And we’re not designed to do life alone.
