Boyz to MenTors

Another ministry burden we have is to mentor and build up our young men. We have a male right of passage program in place (for ages 11-17) to teach, train, and walk alongside the "kids" and help bring out the "kings" inside of them. After each young man has matured, we ask that they would return to mentor another young man and help him along the pathway to his kingship.

"...But I have pleaded in prayer for you, (Man of God), that your faith should not fail. So when you have repented and turned to me again, strengthen and build up your brothers." Luke 22:32 (NLT)
