LIFE-ON-LIFE MENTORING DISCIPLESHIP IS OUR PRIMARY FOCUS FOR REACHING URBAN YOUTH. THIS IS WHERE WE MATCH GODLY MEN AND WOMEN WITH 4TH OR 5TH GRADE STUDENTS TO MAKE A COMMITMENT TO WALK ALONGSIDE THEM, BUILDING A LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP THAT IS MUTUALLY TRANSFORMING. OUR MENTORS TYPICALLY SPEND AN AVERAGE OF 5 HOURS A MONTH WITH THEIR STUDENT. WE ASK OUR MENTORS TO MEET AT LEAST TWO TIMES A MONTH WITH THE STUDENT IN A VARIETY OF CONTEXTS. MENTORING TAKES PLACE EVERYWHERE AND MOST TIMES IS DONE SIMPLY BY GETTING TO KNOW ONE ANOTHER. CURRENTLY THERE ARE 250 YOUTH IN OUR LIFE-ON-LIFE MENTORING.
BUILT FOR THE WILD A MINISTRY THAT PROVIDES CAMPS AND CONFERENCES FOR TEENAGERS AROUND ALABAMA. THROUGH CAMPS AND CONFERENCES, WE PRESENT THE GOSPEL IN A DYNAMIC WAY THAT ALLOWS THE LISTENER TO CONNECT AND CLEARLY HEAR ABOUT THE LOVE OF GOD. WE BRING A FRESH EXPRESSION OF JESUS TO THIS GENERATION, WITH A VOICE AND MEDIA THAT RESONATE WITH YOUTH CULTURE. WERE NOT INTERESTED IN MAKING THE BUILT WILD KNOWN; WE WANT THE NAME OF JESUS TO BE KNOWN. SINCE BUILT WILDS FOUNDING, WE HAVE LINKED ARMS WITH MANY MINISTRIES AND CHURCHES AROUND THE SOUTH TO FUEL EVANGELISTIC MOVEMENTS. WHETHER WE ARE HOSTING A BIG OUTREACH EVENT OR PROVIDING THE EVANGELISTIC VOICE AT ANOTHER ORGANIZATIONS EVENT, THE COMMON GOAL OF EVERYTHING WE DO IS TO SHARE THE HOPE OF JESUS.
ASPIRE CLUB IS AN AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM DESIGNATED TO REACH THE YOUTH IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS WHO ARE WAITING FOR A MENTOR. EVERY THURSDAY FOR AN HOUR WE ENGAGE WITH THE CHILDREN IN FUN ACTIVITIES, READ THROUGH VARIOUS RESOURCES, BUILD RELATIONSHIPS AS WELL AS PROVIDE A FREE SNACK. THIS IS A TIME WHERE KIDS HAVE SHARED SOME OF THE HARDSHIPS THEY ARE CURRENTLY FACING AND OUR VOLUNTEERS DO AN EXCELLENT JOB ENCOURAGING AND LOVING ON THE CHILDREN. WE HAVE HAD OVER 450 STUDENTS INVOLVED IN ASPIRE CLUB IN THE LAST 6 YEARS, MANY OF WHOM WE HAVE PROVIDED A MENTOR TO WALK ALONGSIDE OF IN LIFE ON LIFE. WE PARTNER WITH THE FELLOWS MINISTRY AT BRIARWOOD PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH WHO PROVIDE 12 RECENT COLLEGE GRADUATES TO COME AND INVEST IN THE LIVES OF THE YOUNG PEOPLE. WE ALSO HAVE MANY OTHER CHURCH VOLUNTEERS COME AND PROVIDE CARE AND COMPASSION FOR THE YOUTH. THIS IS A TIME WHERE PEOPLE CAN EXPLORE WHETHER ASPIRE IS A GOOD FIT FOR THEM. PLANS ARE IN PLACE TO RESUME THIS DURING 2021.
