A Fresh fire has hit me regarding the KOV again, I'm planning on starting the program/ministry in Spring. At that time, a lot will be assembled- sponsors, volunteers, mentors, mentees, everything will be ready to go and have a "grand opening" if you will, in spring. At this time I have 1 mentee, by the end of this month I will plan on having a total of 3, with the ultimate goal of 4. When a mentor wants to invest his time with this program, he can (with training, permission, and time) have up to 4 mentors at MAX.
During this winter I want to have 4 mentees, the max allowed, and find suitable people who want to be mentors, sponsors, or staff to help run the KOV.
I have word that my name has been put up for knighting within the order of the knights of malta, a prestegious, honorable real-world order. As much as I would *love* to be knighted by them, I dont want it to become a hallmark in my life, or a shiney button on my shirt that I can show off to others. God wants real people, nameless, faceless, selfless, willing to give all for His purposes. I admit I am only able to sufficiently help youth in some key areas, but that's why this program is being built! To form a single-minded entity, able to touch all walks of life, having fun, building disciples, without agenda.
This should be fun.
