Barbara Joldersma & Anne Duinkerken, Kids Hope USA Co-Directors
To build successful relationships with at-risk children, the Hope Church Kids Hope Team needs all of the following: one child, one mentor, one prayer partner, one hour, one church, one school. We have the children, the school, and the support of the Hope Church congregation, now we only need mentors, substitute mentors and prayer partners. Will you give the gift of your time and attention to a child this year?
Our work with at-risk children at Vanderbilt Charter Academy begins in October and ends just before Tulip Time in the Spring. It would be wonderful to not have a waiting list of children this year. Please prayerfully consider mentoring a child. The at-risk children of Vanderbilt need you!
Training for new mentors and substitute mentors is tentatively scheduled for the last week of September. Program directors, Anne Duinkerken and Barbara Joldersma will be in the Gathering Area on Sundays, September 8, 15, and 22 with more information and a chance to sign-up to be a part of the Kids Hope team.
