Celebrate Every Journey

The Christmas season is a special time. It is a time of increased volunteerism and increased charitable giving. It is a time of eating together and a time when we can tolerate sappy endings in the movies and shows we watch. It is a time for miracles. The Christmas story in the Christian Bible is full of miracles. It has Angels appearing, a Virgin Birth, signs inIt’s a unique experience to be in my last full year with Karis Disability Services before I retire at the end of December 2025. This organization and our good work together have been part of my journey for over twenty years. When I finish working with Karis Disability Services, it will continue to be a part of my story – but in a new way. Even endings become part of our journey.

As acting CEO for six months, it’s my honour to introduce our organizational theme for 2025: Celebrate Every Journey. I’m learning to celebrate every journey in my life, even as some aspects of it come to an end. These annual themes are a “rallying cry” for us, a way to come together wherever the next twelve months take us. I pray that, as an organization, we will celebrate everybody’s journeys – rejoicing with those who rejoice and mourning with those who mourn (Rom 12:15). the stars, prophetic dreams and a King born in a stable – to name a few.
