Walk, Work & Witness Mentoring Programme

Walk, Work and Witness Mentoring Scheme 2022-2023

"Therefore encourage one another and build each other up" 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (ESV)

Introduction

The Law Network Mentoring scheme has been introduced to bring the benefit of godly mentoring relationships to Christian lawyers. It will equip you for the unique opportunities and challenges that come with being a Christian working in law.

The Programme is run in partnership with the Lawyers` Christian Fellowship (LCF). You'll be mentored by a LCF member who has years of experience living out their faith in the legal world.

Our objective is for the mentor to encourage and build up the mentee as Christians in law to be the very best lawyer for Christ that they can be, choosing the priority of God's call and purposes for their lives.

Testimonials

"The LCF mentor scheme has not only been deeply rewarding for my professional progress as a student but has also enriched my faith by introducing me to a mature Christian brother with whom I can turn to for advice. I have found the scheme to be affirming in how it has encouraged and built my confidence and it has genuinely shown me that Christianity and the law can work together. I am very grateful indeed!" – Thomas Hodson, student

Who is it for?

Law Network mentoring is for everyone! We would love Christian lawyers at all stages of their walk and professional life to be involved in the scheme as mentors and mentees. A number of participants in our pilot scheme relished being both!

Are you a law student? Then come and build a mentoring relationship with a practising lawyer who can encourage you through your studies, career choices, applications, successes, and disappointments.

Are you a trainee solicitor or pupil barrister? Then come and be mentored by a more senior practitioner who has walked the same path or who can encourage you through the challenges and joys of training.

Are you a junior solicitor, barrister, paralegal, legal executive or legal academic? Then let us help you find a mentor to support you in your walk, work, and witness as a Christian lawyer, whatever your field.

What is involved?

The Mentoring Scheme for 2022-2023 will run from October 2022 until July 2023.

The following is the suggested minimum commitment requested of the mentors and mentees, to allow for busy lawyers and law students to get involved.

• Once a week – the mentor prays specifically for the mentee.
• Once a month – the mentor contacts the mentee by text, message, or call.
• Once a term (i.e., at least three times in total) – the mentor and mentee meet in person to chat, encourage, and pray together.
