A mentor is usually someone who is older, more experienced, patient, understanding, etc. than the person they are mentoring. Trinity has used mentors in our confirmation program for many years. They are people who come and sit with the students through confirmation class and then talk about the lessons with the students in their group.
Mentors don’t need to know the answers or be Biblical scholars. We will have mentor huddles to discuss ways to be more effective, any issues or problems, as well as ways to teach confirmation more effectively.
We have two mentor slots to fill for confirmation this fall. We also need people to step forward to help teach Sunday School or Wednesday School. All that is needed is a desire to help fulfill the commitment Trinity makes to young people. We commit to teach faith and the Bible to our young people in their Baptism. Please consider doing this valuable work and become a mentor or teacher.
