New Member Mentor

New Member Mentor

Every new member of St. Patrick is paired with a mentor couple to help them get to know the community. Consider being a mentor for our new members and help them find ministries that utilize their gifts and talents.

Do you love your St. Patrick family? Are you comfortable around new people?  If so, we need you!  Every year around 100 new families join St. Patrick and in a larger parish, it is often difficult to fit in, get to know others, or feel welcomed. Our mentor ministry helps our newly registered parishioners meet others and  find the perfect ministry for them to share their time and talent.

Mentors meet with their new member(s) in what ever setting works best for them.  Sometime at Mass, helping in a ministry, or off campus. We recommend the mentor and new member stay in contact and meet regularly during the first 6 months, and then it’s up to them how/when to continue contact.

If your gift is welcoming others, please consider joining this ministry. Families, couples, and individuals are invited to be Mentors.
