Jefferson County reVision Update

Back in the Fall, we were blessed to be joined in worship by Rev. Jordan Czichos and a student from Houston reVision. They shared the purpose and details about that vital ministry, which seeks to build mentoring relationship for kids in the juvenile justice system. After worship, we were joined by Rev. Carrie Leader and Kim Phelan, who outlined the plans for a Jefferson County chapter of reVision. And the following work, we held a mentor training in order to have a set of church members ready to serve in the mentoring role as soon as reVision was ready to open its doors. 

I’m excited to share that a lot of work has been going on in the background to get Jefferson County reVision up and running! Brit Featherston has been serving as the first part time director while the search continues for a full time program director. He is ready to have the first follow up and public training opportunity for another round of mentors. Here’s what we need from you - 

  1. If you attended the initial mentor training, please reach out to me (jeremy@fumcbeaumont.org) and let me know if you turned in your paperwork, got fingerprinted, and if you’ve taken any other steps to be ready. 

  2. If you want to explore the possibility of becoming a mentor, please plan to attend the new training on Sunday March 3rd from 1:30-3pm in Rothwell Hall

  3. Please pray for this vital organization and ministry partner! I’m excited to see the progress being made and look forward to the day when we are able to love and serve our children more fully through the work that they do.
