What members are saying
“I love the community group I go to with my church, but that space isn't meant to be where I go for career advice. And I love being a part of business networking groups, but advice in those circles is aimed towards making more money, regardless of what it does to your soul. The Alumnus, particularly the Mentorship Forum, gives me the space I was looking for but was struggling to find on my own; mentorship from someone who is very successful in business, but puts the Lord first in how they make decisions. It's been a huge help to me in my career journey, and the council I've received has directly affected my decision to take, or not take on, several opportunities.”
“The Alumnus has deepened my connection to both my community and my relationship with the Lord. My mentorship forum has provided meaningful insight into my education, career, and relationships by creating a space to discuss relevant challenges and gain tangible wisdom from the group members and seasoned mentor. I am deeply grateful for the Alumnus and the role it has played in helping launch me from college into adulthood.”
“Alumnus has been a huge gift personally and professionally! I’m grateful for the friendships I’ve made with fellow young professionals who care deeply about God’s will in our careers. The mentorship and peer advisory is hugely beneficial to anyone early in their careers!”
“The Mentorship Forum has been an incredibly valuable experience, offering practical advice, personal growth, and meaningful career insights. My mentor’s wisdom has helped me see the bigger picture, especially as I navigate important career decisions with discernment and a Christ-centered perspective.”
“Whether you realize it or not, you are the CEO of your life. Alumnus has taught me that to be the best CEO possible, I need a board of directors to help guide me through all areas of life. Alumnus has helped me find mentors, peers and friends that provide wisdom and community.”
“I’ve been involved with many young adult communities and I’m telling you, if you’re a young professional, the mentorship forums alone are worth the investment, but the opportunity to learn and experience life with like minded young professionals makes it a community you simply cannot miss out on joining.”

How It Works
Fill out a short form with your basic info, relationship status, and whether you'd like to join a Mentorship Forum. Agree to our statement of faith and you're in.
Get placed in a small co-ed group with a mentor who has walked ahead of you in career, faith, and life.
Meet monthly with your forum. Build clarity, relationships, and faith. Attend Experiences and Gatherings — and stop figuring it out alone.
The Alumnus
Gatherings
Real conversations about faith, work, and life after college.
Each quarter, a business leader shares their story—how they've navigated adulthood, career decisions, money, and relationships with Jesus at the center, and the mistakes made when they didn't.
If you feel like adulthood snuck up on you, these nights help you make sense of career, money, and relationships with Jesus at the center.
You'll eat together, meet new like-minded friends, and leave with practical wisdom you can apply the next day at work. Spots are limited, so RSVP to save your seat.
Mentorship Forums
Mentorship Forums are led by a mentor who loves Jesus and has walked ahead of you in career and life. In a co‑ed group of 6–8 young professionals, you'll meet monthly to talk about the real stuff—career moves, money, dating and marriage, community, and spiritual growth.
It's not a Bible study. It's not a life group. It's a personal board of advisors led by a mentor—confidential, honest, and designed to help you make wise decisions with a Christ‑centered perspective, not figure things out alone.
