Spiritual Formation Mentor Groups
An opportunity for younger generations of men and women to learn and grow.
unlock your potential as a follower of Jesus
We all need to be surrounded by people who see us for who we are, while encouraging us and helping us unlock our potential as followers of Jesus.
A mentor is someone who can help you see the truth of your identity in Christ and help you grow into the person God has made you to be.
Mentoring is an opportunity for younger generations to learn and grow through the experience and wisdom of wise, Christ-centered men and women of faith.
The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
–2 Timothy 2:2
