A farewell of sorts:

The changing of the guard begins, as Heather begins the new vision for Sonlight Summer 2012. I am excited to hear and see what she puts together for next summer!

As Winston, Mary, and I have begun to see, this is not a "final farewell", but rather a pause of my relationship with Sonlight, and who knows how God will use me in the future of Sonlight, whether it's (2) years from now or (10).

I can't say thank you to everyone I want to, because it would be sooo long that people would stop reading this post. But, I do owe a lot of thanks to certain individuals:

Thanks to my wife Kate for journeying with me the past (3) years.
Thanks to Winston & Mary for all of their support, care, insight, and trust. There are very few people left in this world like these two; I will probably never meet more genuine loving people in this life.
Thanks to the Summer Staffs of 2009, 2010, and 2011. It's because of your hard work that Sonlight has been successful in it's mission these past (3) summers.
Thanks to the current and former Board Members who gave me mountains of support and freedom to try new things: Rob, Jon, Justin, Tim, Pam, Winston, and Mary.

I journey from Sonlight seeking to bring glory to God, and following the Spirit's leading, into new challenges and Kingdom work.

Live your life with this verse in front of you:
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6
