Choosing Mentor experience
Q: Do we want to continue adding new mentors to the website? Should we have a coda/google doc of all the mentors in a document that can be sent to Mentees?
Pros: Can make mentors more committed to finishing modules
First Mentor and Mentee meeting are important —
Q: How can we set this up for success?
Fr. Otero leans on his learnings from Spiritual Direction.
Mentor needs to sell himself; can’t expect mentees to be hungry enough
Answer: “What will the mentee gain out of this relationship?”
Providing clarity of expectations.
Provide opportunity to address anything that is pressing (e.g., JC is getting married, VN is about to buy a house)
Just by talking about the subjects, you can bring
Establish Ground Rules (cc Tom and Michael in initial communication)
3-Meet structure
Meeting #1 - Personal story, Get to know each other
Meeting #2 - Spiritual discussion
Meeting #3 - Structurally, around what would the mentee want out of apprenticeship
Having an outline of pointers (Mentee handout/agenda) could be helpful
Young person may be oblivious. “You don’t know what you don’t know”
Address skepticism that a mentee may have on
“why this is different and better than other mentoring programs out there”
Michael to brainstorm with team on the 3 Meet outline in detail

Special event for matching
Q: How do we make ourselves different?
Fr. Lino: will depend on the mentors just like the teachers are what make a school different and great.
B/c mentors are going to adopt the mentees as their own sons, they will, hopefully over time, gain the reputation, that TC is qualitatively different.
Even in mega churches, relationships formed in the small groups.
GdlR: e.g, Invite mentees to Mentor’s house, see their family, workplace, etc.
Michael to brainstorm TC values (e.g,. TC strategy and tactics infusing the mentality that TC adopts mentees as surrogate sons).
