Hello SUMite Nation. Lynn Donovan here.

I have an announcement. As of May 1, Ann Hutchison will be stepping down as the Director of the SUM ministry. As you may have read, recently she shared some of her family struggles here on the blog. She is finding she needs more time to devote to her family in this season.

The good news is she isn’t leaving us entirely. She will continue to write and share here on the first and third Mondays of each month. YEA!!!!

Ann is also traveling again this summer. So, she might be a bit spotty in the comments. But her love and wisdom remain. On Friday I’ll share more about some awesome things we are going to do in the future here on the blog. We are NOT going away… Just getting started in a new season!

Today, leave a word of encouragement or a prayer or scripture verse for Ann. Please let her know how her love, writing, videos, teaching and wisdom have encouraged you through the years. It’s time to honor her as she moves into her new season.

Blessings and Hugs, Lynn

Ann: You have always been a light into our SUM world. THANK YOU. You have been my friend, my partner in ministry and my dear, dear sister in faith. I adore you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for how you have served selflessly. Great is your reward and I will be first in line in heaven to thank you again before our Father. I bless you as you step into this new season. I bless you with love, peace, unity and cooperation in your relationships and for profound encounters with our Lord. In Jesus name. AMEN

I have had this scripture on a sticky note since you shared it with me years ago. It is a compass for all that I do in ministry. Thank you

But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. Matthew 23:11
