Mission Statement

The mission of the Timothy Project Youth Mentoring Youth program is to enhance the lives of youth and to empower them to do the same for others. Both peer mentoring and leadership training form the cornerstone of our program.

Description

Powerhouse of Love Ministries (PLM), a church without walls, is a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization founded August 18, 1999 by Pastors Carolyn and Rodney Robinson. It was developed to offer an alternative worship environment for the people of the Houston and the surrounding areas, whereby men, women, boys and girls would feel comfortable and be open to receive the gospel. On May 12, 2000 Powerhouse of Love Ministries entered into a covenant relationship with Christian Tabernacle under the leadership of Pastor Richard Heard. Powerhouse of Love Ministries and Christian Tabernacle realized that the Timothy Project: Youth Mentoring Youth would provide nurturing and guidance to youths who are "at-risk" and could serve to mold them into leaders who would in turn do the same for other youths with such needs. Out of this relationship the Timothy Project: Youth Mentoring Youth (TP: YMY) program was born. This vision for this project was to provide a mentoring program for youth 5-21 years old.

The Timothy Project provides mentoring skills that meet the needs of the whole person. Adult group leaders train and mentor youth to become peer mentors. Youth receive training in the areas of communication, healthy relationships, self-esteem, character development, anger management, managing feelings, etc. Upon completion of training, youth are able to become role models to the new participants.

Powerhouse of Love Ministries is an excellent program. I highly recommend not only children to participate in the Timothy Project for developmental life skills, but strongly encourage adults to volunteer their time for the endowment of life issues that even as an adult, may give you poise. I volunteered in the summer of 2009 and look forward to it again upon my next visit to Houston. I took the role as not only a coach for the sports programs, but also helped in the transportation department. There was so much transformation in the mentality of these young people from the time they first arrived in the program, to the end of the three month volunteer service that I offered. I still stay in touch with the Pastors of Power House of Love Ministries and am absolutely amazed at the reports of growth from particular youngsters; especially considering where and what they went through at such a young age. The Timothy Project is definately a positive outreach that makes a difference.
