What is a key principle when mentoring relationships are formed within the women's department?

Trust and accountability come from keeping mentoring conversations confidential while also tracking progress. Maintaining confidentiality ensures mentees can share openly without fear of their personal or spiritual struggles being broadcast. Requiring progress reporting provides a clear path: goals are set, actions are taken, and there’s oversight to support growth. This combination creates a safe space for development and keeps the mentoring relationship focused and responsible. Sharing all mentor details with the entire congregation would invade privacy and erode trust. Not tracking progress leaves goals vague and mentorship ineffective, and unstructured mentorship without confidentiality risks inappropriate disclosures and harm.
