Transition envisioned at the Sunset House

We are entering a season of change.  In my earlier post, I shared some of the exciting ministry activities that Jireh Community has been conducting at the Sunset House. CLICK HERE By way of refresher:    
  • Monday Night Prayer,
  • International Justice Mission meetings on Tuesday evenings,
  • Homeless Men’s & Women’s Bible Study on various evenings
  • Athens PB&J Ministry continues to feed the homeless on Friday & Sunday.
 All this will continue through May but the Jireh students will not be returning to the house next school year.   The availability of the house(s) has been a tremendous blessing, but … after much prayer … the ministry leaders have decided to be free of the burdens, financial & otherwise.  As a member of Jireh’s advisory board, I can tell you that, while saddened, I am completely in support of this decision.    

Of course, this leaves my ministry, Reconciliation Ministries, with the question of the future of the Sunset House.  You may remember that it has 4 bedrooms/2 baths in the “Big” house and 2 bedrooms/1 bath in the guest house.  Perhaps God would have us redeploy in one or several new ministries at the house … or perhaps we should sell and put His money to work elsewhere.  Please be in prayer as we seek his will. Here's some history.
