Enriching Young Lives Through Coaching and Mentoring

Vicki Wright, founder and executive director of Transitions Mentoring Ministry is our guest today. Growing up on a farm with plenty of opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and sports, she found herself majoring in physical education which led to a Masters degree in physical education with an emphasis in administration. After graduating, she became a high school teacher coaching gymnastics, cheerleading, and volley ball.  After teaching school, Vicki became the President and owner of Tumble Tots, Inc., a mobile pre-school gymnastics program. Continuing with her passion for the sport of gymnastics, Vicki also coached at Ball State University, North Central High School, Miss Juanita’s Apple Juice Kids Child Care, Jireh Sports Urban Minstry, and Charles A. Tindley Accelerated High School.  Many participants in the Transitions Mentoring program were coached by Vicki as young gymnasts. One of Transitions' success "secrets" is that it employs the combination of discipleship tools and mentor-mentee accountability. With a passion for serving the Lord mixed with a passion for serving young people, watching them sprout and grow, Transitions Ministry is the perfect platform for all of this and more to happen.  Invite someone you know, a young adult or even someone older, to join you and listen in. Vicki will be taking calls with questions and comments at (646) 716-8344.
