Volunteer Spotlight: Linda's Legacy
Kaitlyn (14) and Jaxon (9) Fielder
have been volunteering for MCH with their grandmother Linda Fielder for six years."When Jaxon was four, he saw his big sister helping me and he wanted to help roll the forks and spoons into napkins and make other special bags for senior adults and homeless lunch events too," shares Linda. Jaxon enjoys sorting toys and clothing at the Gano Mission Center, and both grandkids recently helped Linda fill 54 stockings with treats for the special Christmas lunch planned for the homeless on December 12. Linda has been an loyal MCH volunteer since 1983 when she helped in the Fletcher nursery (see her in the history video here. "Since Christ was a servant leader," she adds,"I think it is important for my grandkids to learn this biblical principle early in their lives. They truly enjoy helping others." See Linda's volunteer story onvideo here.
