Hi friends,
My intention is to write here weekly. That will happen soon. But let’s talk mentor teams…
We just finished our three month calendar for Talent Friends Mentoring. I am excited about how things are turning out there. The mentors are really doing a great job of fighting through the hard early months of trying to establish a relationship with their kids. We have fishing, hiking and bowling trips planned on top of the regular group and individual meetings. Sounds like fun and a good opportunity to build relationships.
I am currently working with a number of other churches in phoenix as we build towards a community full of mentors from within the individual churches. I am increasingly excited as things are growing and building. The foundations took a long time to lay, but I think we are ready to start the building.
We have just begun the planning for a mentor-mentee summer camp. Bud, Clem and I have been charged with making it a success. I believe this is a really important aspect of what we are doing with HATS Team mentoring. Please be praying that God will give us wisdom as we are deciding what camp ought to look like.
We just finished our big Spring Concert Fundraiser with Rebecca St. James and Tampa Bay Punter Josh Bidwell. We did this in conjunction with Fellowship of Christian Athletes. It was really cool that we all had the opportunity to work together to do something bigger than either one of us could have done alone. I had a great time there and I hope that any of you who made it enjoyed yourselves. A bunch of people got to hear about a couple of great organizations and what each is doing in our community. Josh is a great speaker and Rebecca St. James did a fantastic show.
That’s all for now, God Bless you
