MENTORSHIP
2Timothy 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
By looking at the Bible, we realized that the bible is completely relying on tutitlage through ‘MENTORSHIP’. This after reading the bible realizing most influential people in the bible had a tutor before they became great.
The team of DSI as it is comprised of many young people as team members. After looking at our lives we realised that in our lives either in academy in our young lives in christianity we have records that many of us never ourselves with any mentors in our lives who would guide us academically, Spiritually socially and also who would us in handling our issues dealing with relationship. We found that most of the elders work is to condemn only rather than to walk the young people through these stages and processes of life. By this DSI decided to begin doing mentorships in Primary Schools, High Schools and Colleges. Also we managed to also mentor Clubs and also church youth groups. This we managed by forming whatsapp groups, visiting schools, organizing some seesion for the young people courting on marriage issues and also talking to the young couples who are already married. Post primary school and post high school students to help them and guide them.

COLLEGES /TECHNICAL SCHOOL
DSI also managed to have some interractions with some tertiarry institutions like like one college and a technical school,

OTHER TEAMS AND GROUPS
As we mentioned that DSI has been keen on mentorship because we also managed to work a football club and the result became fairly well afterwards and since the team leadership were also determined. This helped us alot and gave much breakthrough. We also managed to try to help a group to come up with a system of raising money and managing the group well and this worked very well.
We also managed to talk to some young people who were willing to get married and also who were young in marriage who did not manage to get any pre-marital couselling or any mentorship for the same.
