Metanoia Makes a
Difference in My Life
By Tyquanisha Fludd
Have you ever been in a
program where they teach you how to be a leader? Well, there’s a program
in the Chicora Cherokee neighborhood in North Charleston called the Metanoia Young Leaders
Program where they teach children like me how to be a leader.
When I arrive at
Metanoia each day, I feel that I am special because the teachers treat
everyone equally and there are no teachers’ pets. The rules apply to
everyone including me.
There is a wonderful
staff here at Metanoia. They each have such good qualities. Ms. Charmaine
is stylish, nice and has a beautiful voice. Rev. Bill and Rev. Evelyn are
very nice and caring people. Ms. Liz is a great role model whom I admire.
Ms. Paulette is such a great cook. I love her cornbread and cupcakes. They
are the best I have ever tasted. I saved Ms. Quanna for last because she
is my favorite. She is funny and when you are down, she gets you up and
about.
If I weren’t at
Metanoia, I would probably be with my friends following them and getting
myself in trouble like I used to. I love Metanoia and being involved in
it.
Metanoia is one of the ministries supported by your gifts to the State
Missions Offering of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of South Carolina.
The goal for 2005 is $110,000.
