"I feel so very blessed to be part of the ministry at ILS because it is indeed a special place. I love teaching children and making sure they know they are each uniquely made just the way God wanted them to be. My favorite part about teaching is sharing the Gospel each and every day, threading it through all we do. Every new school year, I discover that I care about each child in the room so helping them learn is a joy."
