Webinar: Cultivating Mentoring Relationships for Formation

We often hear the word “mentor” used casually to describe someone who has made a deep impact on someone’s life either personally or professionally. Some churches harness the power of this specific type of relationship during Confirmation programs. What does an intentional mentoring relationship within a parish context look like? Can it be used outside of a time-bound program like Confirmation? What components are needed to make these relationships flourish? In this webinar, panelist Carol Pinkham Oak will explores all this and more!
