Building caring relationships...
One CHILD. One HOUR.
One CHURCH. One SCHOOL.
The BTPC Session is excited to implement this new outreach opportunity that focuses on volunteers from the congregation mentoring local school children in need during the school day.
We are looking for members from BTPC that are willing to volunteer one hour a week to mentor one student throughout the school year.
