Little Things Go a Long Way
There are many places where a little can go a long way. This is especially true when it comes to kindness and love.
When Karen arrived at our church, she had a passion for helping show love to the teachers at Bannerman Learning Center. As a retired teacher, she knew firsthand how hard teaching is and how important it is for a teacher to feel loved and supported. She wanted the Bannerman teachers to experience this support, even though they didn't have a parent association like most schools.

Karen wouldn't want this to be about her. I share her in this ministry celebration because when we seek where God wants to use us in our community and then give our presence, gifts, and service, amazing things happen for God's glory!
