A guest post from Marisa Geitner, president & C.E.O. of Heritage Christian Services
My kids and I are always in the kitchen. At the holidays we
bake pies and Christmas cookies, and in the summer we try new ways to use the
vegetables from our garden.
It’s our tradition. It’s one way we spend time together.
At Heritage Christian, we have traditions, too – things we
do that make us family.
We celebrate important milestones.
We cheer as people
cross finish lines and learn to do more than they ever thought possible.
We
care.
We talk a lot about treating people with Christian
compassion, about becoming love in action. Love says that we must open our
hearts to the people we serve and the people we work with. It requires us to be
patient, humble and kind, and it encourages us to see the good in every
situation.
That’s a tradition I’m especially proud of.
