The Crossing Church wants to show and share God's love to the schools! The schools play an essential role in the community and in the development of the next generation of leaders. We are focusing our resources of time, people and energy to the local schools in our community.
BECOME A MENTOR
We'd like to invite you to an incredible opportunity to make a difference in the life of a student this fall: A mentoring program has begun where small groups of at-risk students (3-5) will be paired with a mentor (or two) to meet together 1-hour each week after school. The lesson curriculum is all provided - no experience is necessary - and a comprehensive training will be offered. The small groups will cover topics like character development, goal setting, life-skills, peacemaking, and caring for others. The groups will meet on campus - they're fun, valuable, and proven to impact a student and even change a community. The influence of a caring adult is immeasurable and the reward is priceless! Would you consider jumping on board and becoming a mentor this year?
· Training date: Tuesday 6:30-9pm, 2/28 @ Estancia High School Library
· TB Tests and fingerprint screening are necessary for every volunteer
