The Mentors
“I was once part of JTOM and found it a valuable experience for building connections and discerning a call to ministry. Now, I’ve chosen to offer the same support to others, helping them navigate their journeys through mentorship and fellowship.”
— Saul Gastelum Flores, 2025 JTOM Mentor
“JTOM offers a welcoming space to form connections with fellow seminary students, discern your call to ministry in the UMC and be guided through mentorship.”
— Tae Park, 2025 JTOM Mentor
“As scholars share their call stories and wrestle together with theological and pastoral questions, we discover how powerful it is to have companions on this journey. Listening to them, I am continually encouraged and reminded that God is still at work among us. If you are seeking a community where your call is honored, your questions are welcomed, and your journey is shared, this is a path worth walking together.”
— Ran Yoo, 2025 JTOM Mentor
