Young Lives
I've started to volunteer with Young Lives. This is a a branch of of Young Life. I'm in training to be a mentor to a teenage mom in Philly. The mentors and moms meet once a month for club where we eat dinner, play games, have a Bible and parenting lesson. Once a month the mentors meet with the Young Lives leader for training. In addition to these meetings, mentors meet with their moms once a week. Last week I was matched up with a teenage mom. Latosha is 17 years old and graduated from high school in June. Her son, Terrell, was born the beginning of May 2006. I'm excited to spend time with them but I also feel the weight of responsibility. God's entrusted me with the opportunity to be her friend and in time, speak into her life. Please pray for us if you think of it. Thanks. http://www.younglife.org/Pages/YoungLives.htm
