After many months of prayer and quite an emotional morning, Luke and I have an announcement that we would like to share with our loved ones.
First off, as many of you may know, Luke has been enrolled in online seminary classes through Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri. For the past year or so, we have felt that God was calling Luke to continue his education through seminary. We decided that online classes would be the easiest way for us. This is Luke’s second semester of online classes. Noticed that I said earlier that online classes were the easiest way for US to answer God’s call to seminary. However, sometimes the easiest way for US isn’t the way God wants us to answer His call. Through lots of prayer and consideration, we have decided to answer God’s call to full-time seminary training.
We will be moving to Kansas City, Missouri so that Luke can pursue his Master’s Degree of Divinity with a concentration in Youth Ministry at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. His last Sunday with the church will be May 29 and I will be resigning from my job, effective at the end of the school year. We plan on moving the first couple weeks of June. We have visited the campus a couple of times and really enjoy the area. We already have a tiny, cute apartment waiting for us on campus.
Obviously, we are taking a giant leap of faith and will have to make huge changes. One being our tiny apartment…we will be living 5 hours from all our family and friends…neither of us have jobs yet…we have to sell our house…and so on and so forth. It’s quite stressful (obviously) but we know that everything will work out the way God intends for it to. We know that it won’t be easy leaving everything (and everyone) behind, but we know that God has great things in store for us if we just follow Him. We ask that our friends and family here continue to pray for us and support us in these next few months as we make the transition to Kansas City.
