"One of my biggest takeaways<br />

from the summit is<br />

the reminder that I can make<br />

simple changes to create<br />

margin in my life that will<br />

leave space for the Holy Spirit<br />

and His mission."<br />

Janelle Rice<br />

see how much Envision and the C&MA value investing in young leaders!" I heard about some of the amazing things God did in Enoch's<br />

life and it was evident that God met him in a new way! He explained, “Envision changed me as it taught me that looking after myself<br />

would make me a better follower of Christ, and a better example to others.”<br />

Zach wrote the following letter to the Global Impact Team,<br />

“I first off would like to say thank you for choosing and helping me get to the Envision Summit in Vancouver this past week. I am forever<br />

grateful, and appreciate your very generous hearts. What can I say about the <strong>2018</strong> Envision Summit? Well, I am glad it came at the time<br />

it did in my life. I went into the week with lots of questions, doubts, and an uneasy heart relating to the realities in my life back here in<br />

Calgary. As I was on the plane I simply stated to the Lord, “What’s next, God?” I was anticipating that the Lord was going to show up<br />

and give me revelation at the Summit, and let me tell you, He did. Envision created an atmosphere that allowed me to be vulnerable<br />

and navigate through personal struggle. They emphasized the importance of soul care. It was at the Summit where I truly found my soul<br />

becoming decluttered and filled with the truth of who I am. As I found my soul becoming healthier I then had a clearer mind to focus on the<br />

question, “What does it mean to be on mission as a leader within the C&MA?” I found this question quite impactful and I still haven’t figured<br />

it out, but it provoked something in me. Another question was asked to us as leaders and it was this: “Is what you do worth the incarnation<br />

of Christ?” This question will forever linger in my heart and mind. It provokes me to truly look at why I do what I do, and what are my<br />

motives.In closing I would say that if anyone can go to the Envision Summit, take it. It truly will challenge and shape your life as a leader.<br />

The skills, knowledge, growth, and impact I had this past week will carry with me for the rest of my life. Again, I cannot begin to describe<br />

how thankful I am for FAC. Thank you. Grace and Peace.”<br />

I'm so excited to see where God leads these five in the years to come – I pray that this is a tipping point in their ministry and<br />

influence here in Calgary. •<br />
