    Jack Staudt Retiring as Executive Director

    "Our people will spend up to 2 hours coming and 2 hours returning home for our Celebration meals and events, this is important to them." Jack enthuses. He further explains Holy Spirit is providing both worship and the usual meal making the HSLC event more special. Rev. Dave invites HSLC: "Join us, come and be present. Have conversation and connections that bridge the isolation commonplace when living with a disability". That is what we, the members and visitors to HSLC can do to be a part of the Bridge Ministries mission this Sunday.

    Rev. Dave Emery & Jack Staudt

    Jack (photo right)has been very busy these last 6 years building and strengthening an organization that provides a vibrant spiritual social community serving thousands, that annually recycles $1 million in equipment for people living with disabilities, and that provides guardianship services. Jack's voice is full of pride and respect as he introduces me to his soon-to-be former team. Rev. Dr David Emery, (photo left) the incoming Executive Director, talks about his focus on the spiritual life, as the administrative side is well in hand.

    Jack was an entrepreneur in technology and business services the first time he tried to retire 6 years ago. But God had other plans for Jack. He had been volunteering at Bridge Ministries, and the Board tapped him to fill the Executive Director position. He did this reluctantly but gladly, as he shared the deep spiritual convictions of the organization and saw how he could contribute.

    Jack will continue to be on the Board but hopes now to have more time for his 7 year old grandson living in Chicago. I had to really pry to learn about his hobby: he hopes to spend time with his wife Deirdre, a fellow enthusiast, tinkering with and driving old Porsches.

    Bridge Disability Ministries is one of the few Christian organizations working with people living with disabilities to fulfill spiritual, physical, and community needs. It was started 25 years ago by Rev. Wapstra, a Presbyterian minister to address the exclusion and isolation that people were experiencing. This Sunday HSLC has a chance to provide inclusive worship and community.
