One-to-One Spiritual Mentoring relationships can be catered to where you are spiritually. After registering to get involved, a member of the ministry team will contact you to set up a brief meeting in order to get to know you more and determine which of our mentors would be best for you. Most people meet weekly or every-other week with their mentors at Wooddale Church, coffee shops or area restaurants.

One-to-One Spiritual Mentoring is focused primarily on spiritual growth. While personal growth and "mentoring" is definitely an aspect of One-to-One Spiritual Mentoring, it isn't the primary focus. Spiritual growth manifests itself in personal growth - through a heart that is increasingly centered on God and His Word. Our goal is to help you become a more fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ.
