When we first began, Jim came off as a bit timid, yet over time I have noticed become much more comfortable talking and joking around with not only me, but also the others participating in this program.

       It is awesome to see the types of relationships that the Knights and Setons are able to build through Artisans and has made it clear to me that we really are capable of making a difference in the lives of others. My experience with Artisans this year has been very rewarding and I cannot wait for what’s to come.
