Cindy Caporaso writes: I am enjoying life these days very much as I continue to be quite busy! In January, I completed a certificate program in Theology and Ministry through continuing education at Princeton Seminary.  In May, I began serving as Children's Ministries Assistant in Morris County, N.J. Five months later to the day, I had the honor of being named Director of Children's Ministries at The Presbyterian Church of Chatham Township.  I love my work and am blessed to be involved in a variety of church ministries with such amazing people.  With so much to be grateful for, Moravian is always and still close to my heart.  Sending big shout outs to all who remember that Zinzendorf Hall was once a dorm!
