Breathing Space

Respite (n) - a delay or cessation for a time, especially of anything distressing or trying; an interval of relief.

Sometimes, we all need to stop and take inventory of our lives. We need to pause and assess our spiritual, emotional, and physical condition. Over the past decade, we have been dedicated to pursuing lost students for Christ with but a few moments to step away from the mission and reflect on our journey and personal well-being. Needless to say, we’ve realized we are overdue for a such a time.
In the midst of this transition in our ministry assignments, we are using the next several months to seek some rest amidst the major changes and challenges we’ve encountered over the past few years. Before we report to our next assignment, we plan to spend some valuable time listening closely to the Lord, resting in Him, and seeking His direction for the days ahead.
We also find ourselves in a season where it has become important and necessary for us to reconnect with our ministry partners (so you might be hearing from us soon) and to build our team of financial partners.
Before God enables us to begin working in the new areas of our calling, please pray for us. Pray that we would experience a sweet time of refreshment, connection, transformation, adjustment, and fine-tuning in our walks with the Lord.
