“Thank you for everything you've done for us.  We really appreciate it.  Everyone has been so nice to us, and helpful too.  We consider you all as friends through God.”

“I love my mentor.  She has helped me so much.  I don't know what my life would be without her.  She is one of my best friends.  I know we will be friends for life.”

“My family is doing really well.  My husband got a promotion at his job and our baby is extremely happy and friendly.  I am just happy that I have a wonderful family that I love and they love me!  Thank you for being a great friend to me. Love you and God bless.”

“I want to thank ATLAS and the many generous people who have made this holiday season so much better for me. God has opened my eyes and heart to realize that finances are not what life is all about, that a person can live without a lot of money, and still have a good deal to give to others.  The love of the people through ATLAS is the biggest encouragement that I could have received and I hope that I will be able to send some on.”

“God has blessed me through ATLAS in so many ways.  Just to mention a few: 1. By helping, so I could see my wife, who is in Spencer at the hospital there.  2. Someone was willing to donate a car to me.  His name is Henry.  My other car was too old and I was worried to drive it this winter.  3. I've been blessed by God through ATLAS, which I'm thankful for.  They've been a blessing to me.”

“She [my mentor] encourages me to be myself and not what others think I should be.”

He [my mentor] sees things that God has done through me that I don't see.”

"We want to thank you so much for getting us connected.  We have had a great few years together and we will remain friends forever.  We are so grateful for ATLAS and your ministry.  All the work you do is appreciated by many!”

“ATLAS has been a big part of my life in the last year and a half.  I was in a lot of trouble in my past.  I was going down the wrong path.  A friend brought me to church and I met the people who work with ATLAS who took me in as one of their own...They provide many services to help others—for me I need positive influences and positive friends which they've given me.  I really believe in their mentor program where you spend and hour or two a week with someone who can guide you.  As the relationship grows, you actually end up with a friend for life. This is one of many great things ATLAS has done for me.”

"I like his [my mentors] friends and how he introduces me to them.”

“My mentor is very helpful to me and listens.  I love my mentor like a sister...”

“We laugh together.”

“Thank you so much for the card.  It came at the perfect time.  It's really been a challenge for me lately!  I'm so thankful God is with me.  Please continue to pray for me and my family.”

God bless you and thank you for being there in this bad time I've created in my life and my family's life.  Thank you for everything.”

“I don't know what I would have done without ATLAS or your help.”

"I'm very happy with my mentor.  I enjoy our visits.”

“Thank you so very much for all your help!!  Your kindness, compassion, caring, loving, and empathetic understanding mean so much.  Thank you for your love in Jesus and for sharing that with me as well as all you have done for me.  I can't thank you enough.  I hope that I can give back all that I have been given.”
