Katy Verdesoto: How the CCO taught her to love her neighbor

verdesoto_katy.jpg“If it weren’t for the CCO ministry, I would not have chosen the career path I chose, nor would I have the values I currently hold,” says Katy Verdesoto, a community outreach nurse. “Each decision I make, from the day-to-day to major life events, is governed by my faith. Because of my faith, I have chosen a career in the underserved neighborhoods of Pittsburgh, I choose to shop justly, and I decide each morning to love everyone I come in contact with, regardless of race or social status. I share my faith on a daily basis with my family, neighbors and patients. I am involved in my community, both as a nurse and a neighbor. I attend community meetings, support local business, and am a medical resource for my neighbors.”
