Tonight we wrapped up the Journey Retreat. It was a good week and my entire group is going home different than when they came. We worked hard as a group looking at Story. I love story work because when a story is looked at and themes and events that surround the story are unpacked, clarity is found. Open Hearts Ministry is not a ministry that encourages people to live in the past. Actually it is very different than that. It is not uncommon to ask someone if it is life-giving to choose to stay a victim in a situation or what lie is being believed when someone chooses silence?
Open Hearts has a new mission statement…..
Love God
Love each other
One story at a time.
There will be another journey retreat in early fall. If anyone would like more information on attending, please let me know!

Thanks for serving this ministry with your whole and beautiful heart. We love you much!
