Description / Abstract

ABSTRACT This Capstone Project stresses the need for and importance of Intentional ‘Parent-Child’ Mentoring as the model for mentoring Interns and Licensed Ministers. Being intentional adds more weight to the significance of mentoring. Biblical examples and principles of Intentional ‘Parent-Child’ Mentoring, especially between Paul and Titus, were analyzed/explained to show the foundation, strengthening the importance of such model. To strengthen this claim, the ‘Parent-Child’ relationship in the context as Filipinos was also discussed to serve as a parallel guide in mentoring, and treating the mentees just like how a parent treats their children. This Capstone Project also aims to help the Interns and Licensed Ministers of Eastern National Capital District (ENCD) to become more competent and confident in their Christian Life and Pastoral Ministry. Data gathered from the questionnaires, including the interviews, clearly show the areas of their Christian Life and Pastoral Ministry that needs competence and confidence as such leadership, administration, knowledge of the Wesleyan discipline and doctrines, handling conflict in the church effectively, lessons about ministering to the family, sermon preparation and effective delivery, financial stewardship and integrity and mental health of a minister. Therefore, a curriculum that focuses in addressing these areas must be developed and taught. Intentional Mentoring is indeed a must for them. Moreover, surveys were also conducted among the Retired and Ordained Ministers of ENCD that determine who among these ministers could help mentor the Interns and Licensed Ministers in the areas where they needed more competence and confidence. They have a crucial part in helping the Interns and Licensed Ministers succeed in their life and pastoral ministry. The result shows that they are capable of handling at least one areas for the improvement of confidence and competence of Interns and Licensed Ministers. However, result of the survey also reveals that there is a need for intentional mentoring even to the Ordained Ministers, especially those in the ministry for 10 years and below. Furthermore, the survey also reveals that there are two ministers who are not yet qualified to mentor the Interns and Licensed ministers because of the following reasons: they have no experience of being intentionally mentored by someone and/or they are not mentoring someone today. This research also shows the need for the involvement of the district leadership (DBA) in its implementation so that the Intentional ‘Parent-Child’ Mentoring of Interns and Licensed Ministers will become successful, not only today but even in the future.

Capstone Projects are generally designed to encourage students to think critically, solve challenging problems, and develop skills such as oral communication, public speaking, research skills, media literacy, teamwork, planning, self-sufficiency, or goal setting—i.e., skills that will help prepare them for their careers. In most cases, the projects are also interdisciplinary, in the sense that they require students to apply skills or investigate issues across many different subject areas or domains of knowledge. Capstone projects also tend to encourage students to connect their projects to community issues or problems, and to integrate outside-of-school learning experiences, including activities such as interviews, scientific observations, or internships.
