You are invited to join me on a great adventure with the Lord! In Isaiah 58, the prophet Isaiah challenges the people to break every yoke, repair the breach, and restore the streets in which to live...BREAKING THE CHAINS of oppression with healing and restoration, repairing the lives of those who have fallen into the gap of exploitation, and creating transformation as agents of His Light in the broken world all around us.
On November 4, I leave for Bangkok and three months of ministry at NightLight, an incredible organization that is reaching out to women in the sex industry...bringing light into the darkness of the Nana district. This is the same ministry I served in during January and February of 2007. I look forward with great anticipation to returning and ministering side-by-side with the great NightLight team as well as rebuildling relationships with the 85 incredible women who have come out of the "gap" and are now employed at Night Light Design creating beautiful jewelry. I will be sharing much more about NightLight in the future.
FOR NOW...I need your prayers as I bring closure to my ministry at First Baptist where I have served for over 14 years. There is pain in leaving, especially saying farewell to the many people who have been such a precious part of my life. When you journey together through the "ups and downs", share the highlight moments and dark valleys, rejoice in the God-moments with someone...how do you ever really say goodbye. So, I am choosing not to!
Instead...WELCOME TO THE JOURNEY WITH ME! I do not know where, how, when, only WHY! Most of all I know God is with us - Susan O
