What's A Prayer Mentor?

A prayer mentor is an adult, 21 years or older, who makes a commitment to lift a daily prayer shout for and to encourage a particular student from his or her church until the student graduates from college or is married.

A prayer mentor is not a "face to face" discipler of a student, although he or she may be.
A prayer mentor is not a "super-Christian" or "mighty-person-of-prayer"--just a regular person who is growing in his or her relationship with Christ.
A prayer mentor is one, of a whole network of people, who makes a specific contribution to a student's growth and development in Christ.
A prayer mentor keeps his or her student covered in prayer every day and offers words of encouragement from time to time.
A prayer mentor's relationship with a student grows as the prayer mentor is faithful month after month and year after year to provide prayer support and encouragement to his or her student.
A prayer mentor brings the power of God into a student's life in ways he or she may never know simply by getting better and better at prayer.
