lifeasmission

Just a short post to follow up with everyone who reads this blog and especially those who took interest in previous post about serving as a missionary here in the Midwest.

I  need to thank many of you for your emails, phone calls, financial support, conversations, and prayer as I try to figure out what it looks like to live and help others to live missionally here in the Midwest.  As you may have noticed from my blog, I haven’t been able to raise the necessary support to really invest in the ministry of Repeat the way I had hoped.  On top of this, through further communication, it doesn’t seem like what I feel I can add to the overall thrust of the community is what is most needed.  Consequently, while I will still be proactively exploring other options for missional connections, I will not be heavily investing my time in the way I originally thought.

For the time being, I have begun working at Starbucks on a part-time basis and am also working with the Salvation Army for the holiday season.  I will be assisting with their Angel Tree and Adopt-A-Family programs.  I look forward to writing more about these programs in the near future.

I really want to keep this conversation about missional living and engagement in the midwest, so please offer comments and ask any and all questions that you think of.

Peace.
