SO I will be the new youth minister at Christ Church Episcopal in Short Pump in the end of July and could not be more excited. It is a large church and youth ministry w another full time youth minister. The really exciting thing is that they seem to be a church committed to serving their community and want to be and do more. I am excited by this because I know from my experience with Embrace Richmond, poverty is everywhere. In some places it is the poverty of not having enough resources and in other places it is the poverty of not being in community it is the poverty of love/ In either case Jesus has a lot to say about both.
I will miss my friends at Embrace and I am sad to leave them but I also know that I will have the opportunity to continue to serve alongside them and continue to strengthen the bridge between the church and the world. I really feel this is a great place for God to use my gifts and for our family to be in ministry together. Please keep me and my family in your prayers and if you want to check out a great church go to http://www.christchurchrichmond.org/
