Gathered in STRENGTH

Release the Pressure, Receive the Possibilities

Hey CHW Strength community!

 

Now that I’m back in Virginia, I’ve been looking through my photos from APHA in San Antonio. I’m grateful for the smiles, the stories shared at the Say Hey Lounge, and the moments I got to slow down and take in the view.

 

Today, we’re answering three questions: What? Why? How?


WHAT am I doing today?

I came home with new connections and ideas I’m excited about. I also felt that familiar urge to turn every good conversation into a meeting and every idea into a plan.

 

Looking at that San Antonio skyline again, I remembered how good it felt to simply enjoy what was in front of me. I want to give myself that same room now that I’m home.

 

WHY does this matter?

For me, surrender means doing my part and trusting God with what unfolds. I can follow up with someone I met and leave room for both of us to discover what we might build together. I can write down an idea and give it time before I decide what to do with it.

 

Some of the possibilities I’m most excited about began with a simple hello. I couldn’t have planned those moments, and I’m grateful I was open to them.

 

HOW can you join me?

As we close out our APHA Gathered in STRENGTH series, think of one connection, or idea you want to carry forward. Send the thank-you, make the introduction, or write down the idea. Then give yourself permission to leave the outcome with God.

 

I’m grateful for everyone who made San Antonio so memorable. Let’s celebrate the connections we made with two final Bingo steps!

 

Submit your APHA Bingo video today, Sunday, November 8. Record a quick video sharing the first names of the people you met while completing your Bingo squares. Submit your Bingo video

 

Join us for the Bingo Raffle Reveal tomorrow, Monday, November 9, at 4:00 PM ET. Come celebrate with us! You must be present to win. Join the Bingo Raffle Reveal

 

As you head into a new week, what pressure are you ready to surrender and what might that make room for?


As we close out our APHA Gathered in STRENGTH series, I’d love for us to keep gathering. Come join me in the Sabbatical STRENGTH Community, where we make space to pause, pray and reflect together.

 

When you join, say hello and tell us what pressure you’re ready to release. I’d love to hear from you.
