As I have the opportunity to spend time with you, I hear stories of how God is using your talents, gifts, prayers, and creativity to radically accelerate the fulfillment of the Great Commission across all audiences, meeting them where they are by using digital approaches, principles and tools. Whether you have been persevering for years of digital transformation in ministry or you are just getting started, you belong here.
We are merely scratching the surface of what God will do through us as we work together, dependent on the Holy Spirit and interdependently with one another. Merry Christmas to you and your community. I cannot wait to trust God together with you in 2024.

Together with you,
Cheryl
