Mentor Appreciation Day

Last spring we put on our very first mentor appreciation day. We started early with breakfast delivered to the YoungLives house. We ate, prayed, and socialized. Then we moved onto surprise pedicures with flip-flop gifts! After pedis we went to the park where we sat on picnic blankets, did a tiny bit of training and discussion, then had lunch delivered to us by a committee member. After lunch we sat in a circle and each mentor took a turn sitting in the middle... we all got to affirm the person in the middle and there was lots of laughter and tears! After our affirmation time we had our prayer team arrive to pray over and commission the women into the summer and the next school year. We got lots of feedback that this was the BEST day for them. They felt loved, appreciated, and pampered!
