Greetings,

As my three-year South African anniversary approaches, I am filled with gratitude as I look back and see all God has done thru Bridges of Hope. My time here has been both rewarding and challenging, and I would not trade it for another. As I prayed about extending my commitment another year, I sensed that God had something new for me. I talked it over with several people whose counsel I greatly respect and they all agreed. So it is with a mixture of excitement and sadness that I will be leaving South Africa this September.

My intention is to return to Southern California, refresh, reconnect, pray and then return to ministry as God leads. I do not have any specifics as of yet, but I do know that God has a plan for me in His kingdom work, thus I will wait on Him.

If you have any questions or would like to know more about my decision, you are welcome to contact me by phone or email. You can reach me at: 310-892-8207.

I truly appreciate your steadfast support and ask that you would pray with me during this time of transition.

In His embrace,

Ted
