Sabbatical Recap!!!

Published 5 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Friend :)

Today marks 1 week of work after Sabbatical, and we are feeling refreshed and ready to get things going!!

The Lord moved and spoke in such beautiful ways during our time of rest; we are incredibly grateful. He gave us new insights, new encouragements, new songs, and even some new friends! To put it in a word, Sabbatical was restorative. He restored our energy, our hearts, our family, our creativity, our love for ministry, our rhythms, and our intimacy with Him. The words of Psalm 23 rang true in us this month and continue to sit with us --

"The Lord is my shepherd,

I lack nothing,

He makes me lie down in green pastures,

He leads me beside still waters,

He restores my soul."

As we reflected on our Sabbatical one night recently, we asked each other "What are we taking with us from Sabbatical into our new season of ministry?" and "What are we leaving behind in Sabbatical?" As we discussed, we both felt the Lord inviting us to leave our hurry and worry behind and bring with us the intentional time with Him and with our family. Thank you, Jesus!

Here's a final photo dump from Sabbatical :)

GIVING UPDATE (As of October 6th )

We are so thankful for the way the Lord has already been moving through your generosity. Because of the generosity of one time gifts, we are fully funded until the end of 2025! This has given us the space to keep pressing forward in ministry while intentionally building our monthly support team.

Right now, we are 40% funded in ongoing monthly support!! These monthly partnerships are what truly sustain the ministry long-term—they make it possible for us to pour our full attention into hosting awaken nights, training and equipping leaders, and mobilizing students into their callings with confidence and consistency.

Would you prayerfully consider joining our monthly team? Your partnership isn’t just about covering expenses - it’s about fueling the mission of awakening hearts to Jesus and multiplying kingdom impact. Every monthly gift, big or small, makes a lasting difference.
