Beulah Church is ready to help you begin the new year with a new friend or two! The Faith Friends mentoring partnership is gearing up for the next round of mentor training and the next group of church members and Beulah friends who are ready to discover the direction God has for them.
Faith Friends has been working in our congregation for nearly two years now and individuals, couples and families have seen this learning partnership have a great impact on how they see faith and discipleship as part of their lives.
Faith Friends mentors lead others through a guided course of discovery as a mentor. Their partners are members and friends of Beulah who are ready to discover the big picture of discipleship. Once the mentor and Faith Friend learner(s) have embarked on this journey together, both come away with new insights as to where God may be leading them to deepen their relationship with God.
This partnership is not just for those new to their faith; it is for ALL who are ready to discover God in new ways. Mentors are everyday people who want to help others discover their relationship with God and in so doing, deepen their own relationship. Mentors ARE NOT experts. They are just fellow travelers and are trained how to guide another on this partnership journey.
A new mentor training day is scheduled for Saturday morning, January 16, from 9:00 – 11:30 AM in room 209. Those sensing God’s call to guide an individual, couple or family for a period of one year can contact Carolyn Leah to sign up for the training.
Those individuals, couples or families that want to make some new discoveries in their faith life this year should let Carolyn Leah know and she will work with your Faith Friend mentor partner. Those who have experienced Faith Friends over the past year and a half have wonderful stories to tell! Why not ask them just how beneficial their Faith Friend has been? There will be a Faith Friends Game Night on Sunday evening, January 24, for all previous and potential Faith Friend mentors and partners. Come and join the fun from 6:00 to 8:00 PM.
