A Call To Mentor      

Mentoring a Foster Child

 

Every child needs a safe, stable and loving family. For children in foster care, that hope is often only a dream. Christians can fulfill part of the dream by befriending a child through mentoring.

 

 

 

What can a Christian mentor mean to a foster child?

  • A faithful friend in a life that needs consistent relationships
  • A guide in a world where there are too many decisions and too few boundaries
  • An advocate who will believe in a child who may have lost belief in everything
  • An example of unconditional love that reflects the love of our heavenly Father

 

 

 

What does it take to be a mentor?

  • A desire to share your heart, your hopes and your time
  • A commitment to meet two-three hours a week for a minimum of one year
  • A willingness to share God’s love through your own life
  • A mentor is not a replacement parent, just a faithful friend
