Summary of Role
Premarital Class Mentors are mature married couples who journey with engaged, dating, or married couples during our six week Premarital Course, which happens twice a year. The course is a balance of teaching times and round-table discussions which are facilitated by the Mentors. Rather than providing all the answers, mentors create space for meaningful conversation, prayer, and reflection, helping couples learn how to talk well, listen deeply, and discern faithfully together.
Key Responsibilities
Be a witness of actively lived faith and marriage experience
Facilitate honest, thoughtful, and sometimes uncomfortable conversations and story-telling in a safe, grace-filled environment
Ask wise, discerning questions that help couples practice healthy communication and understand that the goal is formation, not fixing—learning how to talk, listen, and grow together
Listen deeply and without judgment
Holds stories and struggles with confidence and trust
Discern when to encourage, when to gently challenge, and when to refer a couple to a Pastor
Serve under the guidance of our Pastoral Team
Frequency
