I officially announced my resignation from my current position at Spring Arbor University today.  I actually resigned on September 1st, but my supervisors wanted me to wait to tell the whole team.  It has been difficult to have a nearly full time position that is very demanding and numbers-driven....and I have not felt capable of managing it all (with excellence) plus my responsibilities with my family and church.  I had hoped over the last few months that something would change in my situation or, through various discussions, one of my roles could be delegated to others, but at this time, there was not an option like that which would allow me to stay on in the Admissions Office as a part time employee.  My final day in this role will be September 30th.  At times like this.....I feel sad, but hopeful.  God already knew this situation.  God's plans do involve doors closing  and others opening even when it is not a part of our plan.  I will be looking for something between 20-30 hours...closer to 30 would be awesome :)  Please pray for me as I start looking for a role I can manage successfully and yet find a good balance with family and church responsibilities.  I appreciate your thoughts and prayers!!!

  1. I will be praying for this transition in your life. Change is hard, but good sometimes. Love you friend! I have seen you stressed the last while and was wondering how you do it. Praying for something to open up to you that is not do demanding and that will also challenge you.

    1. Thank you, Christy! I know God has a plan and I am actually excited about what that might be...I am back to where I was when I graduated college and wanted to do everything :P So many possibilities spinning in my mind...just want to land somewhere quickly since I have many more people to care for than I did at college graduation.
