A Sabbatical

I will be taking a two month Sabbatical between the months of March and April.  This is something that we are required to do every 5 years.  I am looking forward to it but am also a little apprehensive to be gone from EPIC for such a long time.

Here are the details of my sabbatical:

When:  March & April 2012

Would like to focus on:

• Personal
  • Physically
    • Exercise Routine
    • Healthier Eating Habits
• Spiritually:
  • Spiritual Disciplines
  • Study on Contentment/Book of Job
• Artistically
  • Guitar Lessons
  • Drawing class

• EPIC
  • Professionally—what does God want EPIC to be known for and how do we develop that?
  • Relationally—what needs to happen to create a more unified environment among students at Grace Point?
  • Leadership—development of more adult leaders (especially college age students) and put together a plan for the development of student leaders.
  • Visit 5 student ministries

• College Ministry
  • What would a college ministry look like at GPCC?
  • Visit 2 college ministries

I will be starting my sabbatical with the Simply Youth Ministry Conference in Louisville, KY from March 1-5, 2012.

Please pray that God will give me clarity as to what He wants from me and the student ministry at Grace Point Community Church.
