Alongside her work as a mom of 4 and business owner, Tabitha’s passion for education and love for the Lord drove her to become involved in Children’s Ministry Leadership, where she has been serving for almost 20 years. She cares deeply about creating environments where children can come to know Christ and grow in their faith and feels strongly that, more than ever, we need to partner with parents to train children to be God-fearing, intelligent, future world-changers. With a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in English, and a background in education, having taught college level writing and literature courses for several years, Tabitha understands the value of a good education, particularly one that is grounded in the ability to think critically and communicate effectively. To that end, she is excited to be among the Founding Board Members of Agape Classical Christian Academy.
