VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT
Barb Maplethorpe
"I became interested in Faith In Action after visiting their booth at the 2019 Dodge County Expo. Even though I shared on my application that I was rather particular as to which chores I cared to do, they still accepted me. Happy day! Soon I was trusted with sending birthday cards to the fine folks associated Faith In Action. This sort of task is right up my ally-- paperwork (which I love) and a sit down job (which I really love) and I do love sending cards; I already mail hundreds to family and friends each year. These past couple years I have stretched myself to help serve ice cream at the Kasson Festival and at Marigold Days. Last fall I was even trusted to be around all of those delicious pies and the Soup & Pie Dinner! And although I feel my contribution to Faith in Action is limited, all of the FIA folks I have dealt with have been so nice and very appreciative of my efforts."

My motto is finding "TODAY I CHOOSE JOY" and Faith In Action has fulfilled that need. Everything they do brings "JOY TO OTHERS." It is my "JOY" to design and execute their thank you cards, posters, or whatever they need.
