For those living in chronic poverty, the root need is not for material things– rather, so often the root need is for relationships. Indeed, research has shown that the poor tend to be disconnected from family, friends, neighbors, and community, wreaking havoc on their health and stability and hindering their path out of poverty. This suggests that perhaps the foremost act of charity should be kindling a connection with those in need– but many are hesitant. How do you break the ice? How do you balance encouragement and confrontation? What if there are difficult root issues at play?

Join the True Charity Initiative for in-depth training on mentorship across two evenings – Sunday July 17 and Sunday July 24th from 10:45 -11:45 am, hosted by Christ’s Church of Oronogo. We’ll equip attendees with practical tips and tools that can help you confidently develop real relationships with those in need. If you understand the value of embedding those in need in a loving community but struggle to know how to take the first step, this training is for you!

You will learn:

• Features of a healthy mentoring relationship
• The importance of promoting self-sufficiency
• Techniques for evaluating and goal-setting
• Tips for navigating tricky areas such as confrontation

There is no required fee for this training but we appreciate you registering below so we know how many workbooks to supply. A small donation at the door is encouraged for your materials.
