School has just now ended for another year, but the fall semester will be here before we know it. When we think about school, one of the things that always comes to mind is Arborlawn’s partnership with J. T. Stevens Elementary School through Kids Hope USA.
Two big events are coming up in the Kids Hope ministry. On Wednesday, July 24, we'll have a training class for new Kids Hope mentors. Then, on Saturday, August 10 we're hosting the 2nd Annual Back-to-School Shop & Party for J.T. Stevens kids in the Family Life Center.
Many Arborlawn volunteers have embraced this program – this mission – and have formed wonderful mentoring relationships with the students at J. T. Stevens. It only takes one hour each week, but the difference the mentor makes in the life of one child is beyond measure. Others help by being prayer partners for the mentor-kid relationships.
Contact Laurie Ryan or Shirley Watkins if you're interested in either the new mentor training or helping with the back-to-school event (or both).
