Coming Full Circle at Mel's Diner

51 weeks ago today Aletheia and I moved to downtown Lebanon. After an exhausting move, we lunched here, at Mel's Diner, a local favorite. 

2 1/2 months earlier we had officially launched Space to Spire. After four months of dreaming, talking, planning, and getting all legalized, we were both excited and terrified of having our own business. 

The last 19 months have been full of so much:
--2 moves
--Events in 8 states, offering to churches, schools, individuals and families, universities and seminaries, non-profits, kids and young adult camps, markets, retreat centers
--2 new resources (Visual Prompt Cards, Be Messy Journal)
--Partnering with 3 ConSPIREators
--Meeting so many new and spending time with old friends 

We've been so encouraged by so many of you, offered so much help so often (thanks especially to our lawyer, Mark, our mentors Ken, Steve, Angelique, our amazing house hosts Doreen and Myron, and our families who continue to support us so profoundly). 

So here we are again. At the same restaurant where much of it began.

And the winds of change are once again upon us. Together, we've decided that we won't continue as partners. While Spire isn't going anywhere, it's leadership will change. I will be moving on and Aletheia will be Spire's sole owner. 

Thanks again for journeying alongside of us this past year. We couldn't have done it without you.
