Dear Supporters & Friends,LookingLooking back over the past year, I clearly see both the faithfulness
of the Lord and the beauty of community. Despite obstacles and
set-backs, and plenty of hard days, I am continually overwhelmed
by the ways our community and Jesus have shown up for us. Build-
ing relationships can be messy work, and I hope you all know that
we are far from perfect. But I’m also learning that faithfulness looks
like step-after-step in the right direction, slow and steady and
loving,loving, even in the face of hurt or loss. My neighbors have taught
me that with astounding bravery and grace. And faithfulness to our
place is where we feel like Blueprint 58 is called to be, and where
we will continue.
We are so grateful to each and every one of you for loving our
Blueprint 58 family and neighborhood well, for joining with us in the
hard and beautiful work of building community and transformative
relationships in southwest Atlanta.

Our goal at Blueprint 58 is to create a flourishing community that re-
flects the promise and challenge that God sets forth in Isaiah 58.
We want to love our neighbors well, and move forward together
with them towards a holistic thriving that reflects God’s best for
each and every one of us. We believe the best way to achieve this
goal is one relationship at a time.
We hope that these pages will remind you of the Lord’s faithfulness,
and point you towards the gifts of community and grace that God
has placed in each of our lives. Consider this your invitation to join
us here in Atlanta. Whether that is with your time, your talents, your
gifts, or your prayers, we are grateful for the ways that we are being
knit together in laboring for a world tuned more carefully to justice
and hope.
We are grateful for you, We are grateful for you,

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
OurOur program matches fourth grade stu-dents in our neighborhood with Christian mentors. Here at Blueprint58, we take on a different definition of mentoring; we believe that both our students and men-tors have much to learn from each other. Mentoring for Blueprint58 is about sparking mutually transformational rela-tionships in the hopes that our mentors and students learn and grow together. Our mission is to empower youth to grow into community leaders through mutual-ly transformational relationships.
ACHIEVEMENTS
"A success that I have witnessed this year for mentoring
was with my own mentee. I often tell mentors that work-
ing with students takes time. And building relationships
take time. When I started mentoring, I had this vision of
what it would be like only to find that she did not want
to share all of her difficulties or even all of her successes
with me in the beginning. Why would she? She didn't
knowknow me that well. This year marks 4 years being
matched and has been a turning point in our relation-
ship. She has trusted me with helping her to make goals
for her school year, helping with math, her struggles in
school. The success story is that building relationships
matters. If we hadn't put in the time to get to know
each other, I wouldn't be the one she turns to to help
with her struggles. She may not confide in me all the
time with everything that she is going through, but be-
cause I have shown up for the past 4 years, she knew
that she could come to me this time. I think it is so im-
portant to have someone that you know will always be
there for you and I am honored to be that person for
someone else." -Madi

"Being in this program has been truly inspir-
ing. It has allowed me to grow personally at
a point in my life where it seems like you do
everything for yourself. I am learning the
value of service above self, and I am helping
develop relationships in my community that
wil l create a stronger Atlanta tomorrow. I’m
alsoalso adding on a new family member, as my
family members have taken a liking to my
mentee and they even ask me to invite him
along on family outings, such as to the corn
maze and such. It’s amazing how receptive
people are to try new things and attempt
new relationships if you show an effort and a
passionpassion for people. This program has
changed my life for good!"-Patrick
