“Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow.” Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

Host Families

Host Families from Second Presbyterian Church provide free room and board for every Fellow, even if the Fellow is from Memphis (all Fellows live with host families during the program).

Host families provide a wonderful opportunity for the Fellows to experience life with people striving to serve Christ in the midst of their own challenges, joys, and failures.

“Host families are an opportunity to do life with other believers. You see an example of a Christian family trying to raise their kids to worship the Lord. It gives you perspective on how to live a Christian life based on how they live and worship together.” -Yasmine Isom, Class of 2023

Mentors

Mentoring is an important component of the Fellows program. Each Fellow will get paired with a mentor and will get to choose how much time they want to meet together. Mentors walk alongside Fellows, joining with them in prayer, discipleship, and discernment of God’s leading for their future.
