Dear Friends. It is with a heavy heart that I have discerned that it is time for me to give up the position of Kids Hope Director. I have loved this position and relationship that we have built with Christenberry Elementary. In 14 years we have had just over 50 members involved in a one on one mentoring relationship. We have also had numerous folks help as we celebrate and support the teachers and staff through special luncheons, snacks, mail box goodies and class room support. As I step down, Ruth Crowley and Lee Ley will be stepping up to lead our expressions of love and support for Christenberry staff, teachers and students. Ruth will focus on staff support and Lee will concentrate on teacher/student support. Both Lee & Ruth were mentors for several years in the early days of partnership with Christenberry and have continued to participate in teacher/ staff support through the years. They will both fit well in this new role and I am extremely grateful for their willingness to step up and lead our support of our wonderful community school. Ruth and Lee would love to hear from you! You can reach Ruth at 865-405-3727 and Lee at 423-341-5337. Opportunities to serve and be Christ’s hands and feet are as simple as once or twice a school year, once or twice a month, or even weekly. I so appreciate your support through the years. I am not going away, just stepping down from the leadership position. Peace,
Thea
