Volunteer for our Asé mentorship program! Asé is an African word from the Yoruba language, pronounced ‘ah-shay’. It means power to change or to make so, to create that which you speak. It is a word of affirmation and we affirm that our children shall live well!
We are beginning a new class of Asé mentees. We hope you will consider having your child participate. It takes a village! Please email mailto:livewellchurchnj@gmail.com for more information. Mentors are prayerfully matched to each child, with weekly reports and check-ins to ensure that each child is receiving what they need from the program. Each mentee, mentor, and parent will formalize their agreements in church on Communion Sunday, so please reach out with questions.
Under the compassionate leadership of Pastor Kahlil Carmichael and his dedicated team, our ASE mentoring program offers a unique blend of exercise instruction and life skills training. We understand the challenges today’s youth face, and it’s our mission to equip them with the tools they need to navigate life’s obstacles with confidence and grace.
Our exercise sessions are tailored to not only improve physical health but to also teach the importance of discipline, perseverance, and self-care. These physical activities are designed to be fun and engaging, fostering a love for fitness and healthy living that we hope will last a lifetime.
Beyond physical wellness, our program places a strong emphasis on life skills education. From effective communication and problem-solving to leadership and teamwork, we cover essential skills that are crucial for personal development and success. Our aim is to prepare these extraordinary young people for the future, empowering them to make wise decisions, build meaningful relationships, and contribute positively to their communities.
Pastor Carmichael and his team are more than mentors; they are role models who demonstrate the values of compassion, resilience, and integrity. They are deeply committed to nurturing each child’s potential, celebrating their individuality while guiding them on their path to success.
