Hello friends,
I'm writing today to tell you that, unfortunately, I will no longer be a part of the San Diego Summer Project team. Some things have come up in the past week and it seems that God does not intend for me to minister through SDSP this summer. As hard as it is for me to accept, I know I desire only to serve Him and follow His will. Through my surrender, I have given up my selfish desires--my stubbornness remains, and that's why this is so difficult.
Those of you who had joined me in this project as financial ministry partners will receive your check in the mail soon. I am still waiting for a few to be returned from the project office in Colorado. I promise you, I will return them as soon as possible.
As far as what I now plan to do with my summer...well, I'm not entirely sure. I am not called to go home and sit on my butt. A return to SpringHill is a possibility. My heart is open to all possibilities--if you have any suggestions, feel free to share. ;)
My heart broke when San Diego fell through because I was already so far emotionally invested in looking forward to building community and growing in faith and love all summer. God has given me a passionate heart for ministry, as I learned last summer, and I desire nothing more than to let Him lead me through that.
Please continue to pray for me as I struggle through putting together my summer options. You are always in my prayers!
Love, love, love, Emily
