PROJECT LEAD - SIMPLE GIFTS
SARAH GRAVES is During her career, Sarah worked as a paralegal, preschool teacher, classroom paraprofessional, office manager, and bookkeeper. When she retired, she felt the only thing missing from her “retirement chapter” was the “giving back” piece. That’s when she and TEP found each other. In addition to the various ways she serves with TEP, Sarah enjoys traveling, Bible studies, swimming, knitting, reading, and gardening. Sarah and her husband live in Alpharetta, Georgia, are members of Alpharetta First United Methodist Church, and have two grown sons. She has served on the board since 2018.

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for
he who promised is faithful.
And let us consider
how we may
spur one another on
toward love and good deeds,
not giving up meeting together, as some are
in the habit of doing, but
encouraging one another
— and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
(Hebrews 10:23-25)
