Dear Friends of Lee and Chelsea,

Lee and Chelsea may have already told you about a great opportunity they will be involved in beginning this August.  My name is Randy Hepner and I give direction to the Lake Hart Stint.  Lake Hart Stint is a special one-year Cru senior staff development program at our World Headquarters near Lake Hart here in Orlando, Florida.

Lee and Chelsea, along with a number of other staff from around the world, have been invited to come to Orlando for this program.  They will be involved in specially designed weekly development sessions, be a part of a small group led by our Leadership team and also have a personal coach/mentor.  They will hear from Cru ministry leaders such as our President, Steve Douglass, to provide input into their personal development and equip them for an even more effective ministry.  Moms have some separate times catering to their unique needs.

In addition to the focus on development, Lee will also have an office assignment at our headquarters.  Lee and the other Stint Staff will help to staff some important positions here that enable our 20,000+ staff around the world to be more effective. While Chelsea will not have a formal office assignment, she will be able to use her gifts in more of a “free agent” style.

We want to thank you for making it possible for Lee and Chelsea to minister in their current assignment.  I also want to encourage you to continue to pray for and financially support their ministry in Orlando this next year.  In fact, if you are in a position to increase what you have been giving and/or give an additional special gift to help in their transition here I’m sure they would be greatly encouraged.

Thank you for your part in helping to fulfill the Great Commission!  If you have any questions about this program, do not hesitate to contact me.

Warmly in Christ’s love,
Randy Hepner

PS – We are so excited about this opportunity! It will be a big challenge to uproot our family for a year, but we trust that God will use this program to help us develop from and process through the challenging season we are coming out of (adoption stuff, etc). We look forward to updating you through this adventure and answering whatever questions you have.
Thanks for your ongoing support!
Lee and Chelsea
