I started tutoring at Trinity a little over a year ago and have been seriously bitten by the tutoring bug! Mary Forsythe, the site coordinator, is an awesome lady whose love for the kids – and the tutors – radiates from her face! She always has a warm welcome and a smile for everyone!
I think the thing that really astounds me is not “just” the way the kids come running down the stairs to meet with their tutor, but the number of tutors who come right from work, or come from the other side of town, or come even though they might not be feeling 100% but don’t want to miss a night – or disappoint a child!
A few weeks ago a new face appeared and in speaking with her, I found out that, No – she’s not a tutor, but that didn’t stop her from driving 45 minutes to Trinity to see if she could help out in any way. (She could!!)
While this has been only part of my experience at Trinity, I know that the same holds true for the other tutoring sites: the dedicated coordinators, the enthusiastic students, and the committed tutors combine to make the whole tutoring experience a wonderful place to share and receive God’s love.
Never thought I’d be thankful for being bitten by a bug!!!
