Generous Gift Given to Fellowship Christian Teacher and His Family
May 16, 2008 · Print This Article
Roswell teacher, Joel Flores was shocked and thankful at what was inside an anonymous envelope…the
keys to a 2008 Honda Ridgeline truck and a wad of cash for a year’s worth of gas.
“Thank you so much, it’s just such a blessing to us. Words can’t express how we feel about it,” said Flores.
Flores and his wife Charlotte are both teachers. Last year Charlotte resigned from teaching in order to stay at home with their son Elias. The strain of only having one income forced the Flores to sell their family car and buy a used scooter for Joel Flores to get to work.
Joel teaches English at Fellowship Christian School in Roswell. In addition he also teaches guilar lessons to provide extra income for their family. He also helps with the music program at school and coaches softball.
What does it feel like to receive such a gift? Joel said he, “almost passed out.” The note in the envelope said, “Joel, words cannot express how thankful we are to God for brining you into the lives of our children.”
This act sums up the community of roswell that is comprised of great neighbors, schools and their teachers, and the many other wonderful residents. When you buy a home in Roswell you aren’t just buying a house, you are gaining membership into a community full of great people.
