Mentors & Prayer Partners Needed
– We still need mentors and prayer partners! Confirmation 2025 is under way! We have 17 confirmands this year, and we need your help to make confirmation a time of deep spiritual growth for each one. Our confirmands are in small groups of three to four. We need two mentors and two prayer partners for each small group. We still have space for two female mentors and five prayer partners. We need your help to fill these spots!
A confirmation mentor:
– is an adult who acts as a guide and special friend to a confirmand
– is someone of mature faith who can serve as a guide and companion on this important part of their journey of faith
– is someone who will encourage confirmands to express his or her faith and questions openly
– is someone who actively listens and who recognizes that he or she is still growing in the faith, rather than an “I have all the answers”
– will commit to attend one meeting per month (Sundays, 5 – 7:30 pm)
– will attend the spring baptism and confirmation services
A confirmation prayer partner:
– is an adult who prays for the confirmands in their group
– is someone who prays daily
– is someone who will reach out to their confirmations regularly to let them know they are praying for them
– will attend confirmation events and meetings, to which they are invited, as often as possible
– will attend the spring baptism and confirmation services
Confirmation is not only a time of individual spiritual growth but one of forming a tight spiritual community, having loads of fun together, and sharing the excitement of loving Jesus, one another, and our community as Jesus loves us!
If this sounds like something you would like to be a part of and you are interested in joining our confirmation team, please contact Laura Padgett as soon as possible.
