by mentoring "youth". Youth Guidance is also developing a
partnership ministry that partners with Group Homes, Church's and Youth
Guidance in an opportunity that Christians can come alongside and partner
with local group homes for teens. I am looking for a person who will commit
to being a leader with whom I can help them develop and foster a partnership
with a prospective group home. This partnership opportunity presented is
designed as an introductory volunteer opportunity with the purpose of being
able to recruit volunteers easily. I'm asking for a volunteer to commit to
serving in the group home once a month. This opportunity gets you in the
door, building relationships with teens and staff at a level that is not
overwhelming but minor enough that you may ask yourself the question (in due
time) how to develop this opportunity? If you have any interest in being
apart of this interesting ministry do give me (Bernie) a call at
