ALAINA THIGPEN
Kids Coordinator
Alaina moved to South Carolina when she was in first grade and then to Georgia when she married her husband, John. She has two kids, Jared and Alison. She was a paraprofessional with Columbia County Schools for 12 years but went back to school and graduated from The University of Phoenix with a Bachelors's in Early Childhood Education. She is now a Special Education teacher at North Harlem Elementary. She absolutely loves her job! She gets to make an impact on numerous students' lives every day while helping them be successful at school. That is also her plan with Impact Kids. She wants the kids to Know God, Grow in His love, and Show God's love to others. She wants the kids to see God's love through us, as well as give them foundational knowledge of God's love and His Word.
I love to garden and work in the yard. There is probably nothing more enjoyable then hanging out with my family.
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
