VIDEO: Shepherd Volunteer Appreciation

VIDEO TRANSCRIPTION

Speaker 1:
We’d like to give you these on behalf of Shepherd Community and especially, Shepherd Academy.

Mrs. S.:
Thank you.

Speaker 1:
Nothing really could compare to the amount of time your talent, your treasure, and certainly, your touch that you’ve given our kids through the years. And I want you to know that you have logged in more volunteer hours in the last five years than any volunteer has in all of Shepherd’s history. So we value you. We treasure you because you value and treasure our kids.

Speaker 3:
You’re the best teacher I ever knew. You’re really nice, and I love when you show us how to… you help us learn, and you share with us, and I hope we can meet next year too.

Speaker 3:
Thank you.

Speaker 4:
Thank you, Mrs. S., for teaching us math and thank you for letting us have mints, and it’s just fun learning with you, and it’s really kind of you to do this with us, and I really appreciate it.

Mrs. S.:
Well, thank you. Thank you very much.

Speaker 5:
We just wanted to take a minute and pause and do something we’ve never done before and that is to really thank you guys for all of your years and years and years and years of service. People have asked me how long have Bob and Cindy been here, and I’m like, “They can’t even remember.”

Speaker 5:
So the fact that your life has just kind of been a part of Shepherd and Shepherd’s been a part of you and lots of different things come up, and you’re ready to just jump in there, and I love that, your willingness and your consistency of being a volunteer here at Shepherd, so thank you so much.

Bob McClain:
You’re welcome.

Cindy McClain:
We enjoy it.

Speaker 8:
This is a sign of our appreciation for you guys.

Bob McClain:
Isn’t that nice?

Cindy McClain:
That’s beautiful.

Speaker 8:
And just your willingness and dedication to come each week and serve. I love working alongside you guys. When I’m working with the kids in the cafeteria, it’s just such a blessing to see you guys. You bring such joy and happiness to every person you serve. You guys are just such an asset to our program here at Shepherd, and we couldn’t do what we do here without you guys serving each and every day, every week.

Speaker 8:
We appreciate you being here. We appreciate every time you guys come in, and you guys are just such a blessing to our programs here Shepherd.

Bob McClain:
Thank you for saying that.

Cindy McClain:
Thank you.

Bob McClain:
We enjoy being here. It’s part of our lives.
