Take steps towards becoming a mentor

Alongside is a four-week class designed for individuals who are interested in becoming a mentor. Drawing heavily on Scripture and our De Pree Center mentoring research, this interactive class will help participants understand what it means to be a mentor, discover what they have to offer in a mentoring relationship, and take steps towards becoming a mentor.
