Goodbye from Carrie
Carrie DuBose, Emergency Assistance Program
Manager, will be dearly missed when she leaves her
position at BCM to return to Minnesota this month.
Here is a farewell note from Carrie:
Dear BCM Family –
It is after much prayer and consideration
that I have decided to resign from my posi-
tion at BCM and move back to Minnesota to
be closer to my family. My last day in the of-
fice will be Friday, June 5th. I plan to spend
time hanging out with my family; especially
my four nieces and nephews (under the age of
four)!
I would like to take this opportunity to thank
you for being my family and my home-away-
from-home for the past three years. I have
learned so much from each you and you have
touched my life. Your dedication, passion, ser-
vice and hard work – week after week – to-
wards BCM’s mission have greatly inspired
me! Thank you for making a difference in the
lives of our community, our clients, and most
certainly, my life!
With Love,
Carrie DuBose
Please join all of us at Buckhead Christian Ministry in
wishing Carrie all the best!!
