FAQ:
What kind of training do I need to become a mentor?
You will need to attend a training provided by the directors of Hero2Hero. You will learn procedures and policies of South Hills and the H2H program plus grade specific strategies for mentoring. You will also be required to complete a student safety course and background check through Ministry Safe. A volunteer application from FWISD is also required.
How often will I mentor?
Once per week between 30-45 minutes—the same day and time each week. This is an agreed upon time and day between the mentor and the teacher.
Do I only mentor one student?
One on one time with a student is one thing that makes the program so successful. However, you can choose to mentor more than one student per week.
What if I am unable to mentor a week or two throughout the school year?
That is not a problem. You will need to communicate with the teacher via email or text to let them know.
I do not have educational experience. Is that ok?
Yes! You have access to experienced master teachers who can help you choose activities and goals for your student.

Baptism is an external celebration of a change that has happened in you. When you connect with Christ, you have a new identity in Christ and you are forgiven from sin and its eternal results. The image of baptism connects you with the death and resurrection of Christ, and the water represents the “washing away” of your sins as you trusted Christ. In baptism, you have the opportunity to publicly express your commitment to Christ and share with others the change that He has brought about in your life. Ready to take that step? Use the Connection Card link and check "I want to get baptized."

For this Christmas Season, one of our Local Mobilization serving opportunities at Doxology, we will be partnering with South Hills Elementary and YoungLives again to bring Christmas gifts to families who might not otherwise have a Christmas. On Sunday, November 24th, we will have a table set up for you to come by and pick up a Wishlist for a family. The Wishlist will have clothing sizes, specific needs, and a few items that are wanted by the children. We are hoping to limit the spending to approximately $100. You can bring the gifts unwrapped to Doxology, bundled together with your family’s # on the gifts on Sunday, December 8th to the same area that you picked up the Wishlist from.
