• Thank you so much. I will use my packet, I'm one who needs everything

y'all have offered this week. Thank God for y'all.

• Some of us may not have anyone that can help us on the outside, but with

something like this we can make a plan for our lives.

• I believe this course was really well taught, really well thought out, and

really well researched. I would easily recommend to a friend.

• There is a great balance between the visual, hands on, and feedback

portions of the course. God bless.
