Sheri and Mike live in Maryville with their dog Gibbs. They also have 2 sons, a daughter-in-law and 2 precious grandbabies that they love to spend time with. Sheri thinks being a Granna is the best! She learned about CommunityWorx through her employer, Truist Bank, 4 years ago with the ChristmasWishes program. She volunteered to help at the Christmas party that year and continued each year since. She is involved in most aspects of the ChristmasWishes program and also the Firewood Program. She enjoys the Christmas party because it is great to see the faces of the children that will have a nice Christmas because of the great volunteers and sponsors. She also finds it to be a great opportunity to share the love of Jesus to some who may never hear about Him any other way. She says, “The Firewood Program is also vital for the community because so many would not be able to keep warm without the wood that the ministry provides. I volunteer because the Lord saved me and wants to use me to shine His light so others may come to know Him as well." Mike moved here 7 years ago after being led to the Lord at Miracle Lake Christian Training Center. He spent many years abusing drugs and alcohol, but the Lord saved him from that lifestyle and laid it on his heart to volunteer in his community. His sister, Carol, helped him find an organization in which to volunteer. After she started CommunityWorx, Mike became the Coordinator of the Firewood Program that helps provide warmth for those who cannot afford to heat their homes. He also volunteers in other areas of the ministry that need help.
