We had a wonderful summer with our Wednesday night iBelong group mentoring sessions, with students and mentors completing their twelve week commitment. We’ll continue with monthly group gatherings, with more details soon.
Our mentoring program is also moving into an exciting new phase. Starting this October, we’re partnering with Pflugerville ISD to offer on-site mentoring Wednesdays from 4:15-5:15pm at Connally High School. Specifically, there are seven Afghan young men who need male mentors.
If you are patient, compassionate, and can volunteer at that time, please reach out to Elham Sadat (esadat@interfaithtexas.org) our volunteer coordinator. If you have any questions about our mentoring program, Julianne Luhtala (jluhtala@interfaithtexas.org), our youth program coordinator, will be happy to help. We’re planning more offerings to meet refugees where they are!
