There is absolutely no doubt leading a "Justice" portfolio is challenging as we are called to speak to injustice in so many different areas. You have juggled these balls with amazing grace. You support the leadership within communities. You model intentional listening. Your words are chosen well as you give voice to concerns. I thank you for your leadership. Our paths will continue to keep us connected. May you know you are a blessing.

Although I didn’t attend very many of the sessions you offered, it was for me, an essential way to stay connected to the church, and feel less isolated in my passion for justice work in the church and world.  

It is with deep gratitude that I bid you blessings on the next stage of your journey.
