We’re so happy to have you in the ATS family, Caitlyn. Our participant isn’t in your class but several who are have told me (some version of): “I love Caitlyn. She’s great!” 🙂
Caitlyn’s mom here (Libby) ~
Hello everyone reading these comments. Caitlyn’s Dad would be so blessed by the fact that she is spending her working hours at Able to Serve. It was Seth’s desire to spend time once he retired volunteer at ATS. He had a real big soft spot for people with special needs. Probably seeing this in her Dad helped Caitlyn feel at home in this type of ministry. In the little I’ve observed so far, it looks like my daughter has found a wonderful fit for her heart at ATS.
Love having you in our ATS family! My participant loves having you as her teacher. She tells me, “if I don’t go I will miss seeing Caitlyn”.
Caitlyn, You are certainly loved by Cathy and myself. We are so happy that you are part of the ATS family now! Cathy looks forward to coming to Able to Serve every day.
I believe we are all blessed to have Caitlyn as part of the ATS family! I’ve witnessed her work with each of the participants, showing patience, love and understanding. What a gift she is to us all. Thank you Caitlyn for all you give!❤️
