*SLO HMP 1*
This year I'm going to be interning with a church in the community, my mentor being the Girls Minister. After reading "Getting to Know Your Mentor" and listening to the "First Impressions" podcast, I've come up with a few things I'm going to work on when I start my mentorship this week and for the rest of the year. I'm going to make sure I always make steady eye contact when speaker with not just my mentor, but also other workers at the church. Something else I took away from the podcast was that you should talk 20% of the time and listen 80% of the time. I think this is a really good tip because it will show my mentor that I'm ready to learn and work.
This year I think I'll really learn how a church functions, and how specifically the student ministry in the church works. I look forward to working with my mentor in girls ministry and learning about all the responsibilities that come along with being a girls minister. I plan to really be open to new experiences and lessons that my mentor may have to teach me. Working with my mentor will help me determine for sure whether I would like to go into some type of ministry as a career.
