Identify mentors
Send mature Christian women who are gifted in relationship and willing to be trained.
A community-wide ministry
Your church or organization can help build the bridge.
YoungLives works best when mentors, churches, schools, pregnancy-support organizations, businesses, donors, volunteers, and trusted referrals surround young mothers together.
For local churches
Help young mothers experience the Church as a place of grace, truth, and belonging.
YoungLives fills a relational ministry gap without replacing existing ministry. It helps churches intentionally love young mothers who can feel between youth and adult structures.
Support the launch
Give monthly, sponsor camp, or make YoungLives part of local missions support.
Open your doors
Provide meals, childcare, prayer, supplies, meeting space, and practical resources.
Invite the team
Host Jessica or Lydia with pastors, ministry teams, small groups, or the congregation.
Make introductions
Connect the launch team with donors, leaders, organizations, schools, and potential mentors.
Pray with purpose
Pray for young mothers, children, mentors, leaders, provision, and the January 2027 launch.
Business, foundation & civic leaders
You can profoundly affect a young mother's life without becoming a mentor.
Recurring support, camp sponsorships, committee service, advocacy, donated resources, and introductions make relationship-based ministry possible.
- Build a broad recurring donor base
- Sponsor mothers and children for camp
- Serve on the local committee
- Provide donated resources or event support
- Open doors to other community leaders
One of the most valuable gifts may be an introduction.If you know a pastor, donor, business owner, school leader, pregnancy-support leader, or potential mentor, connect us.
