Summer 2026

Summer 2026 Newsletter

Summer has arrived, and my goodness, it is a busy season. For the second quarter of 2026, we've participated in 118 spiritual direction sessions, not counting our own direction and supervision sessions, plus 10 small group sessions for the two parents support groups we host. That's roughly 10 direction sessions per week through the entire quarter, and we're on track to do over 450 sessions for the year. Praise God!

In addition, we've been very active in the development process for the new church plant we're engaged with, Bethany Anglican Church in Colorado Springs. We've participated in several prayer services and our first full preview service as a church, and all is on track for our formal launch of Bethany Anglican in September of this year. We are definitely praising God for all he's done around the setup and launch of this new church body!

A Time of Transition

The other major development in our lives involves a set of organizational changes we're making with Redeemed Seasons. 

In consultation with our Board of Directors, we have embarked on a path to dissolve our limited liability nonprofit corporation by the end of the year and restructure our ministry under a new corporate umbrella that is resourced and tuned to support small operations like ours. Making this change will allow us to reduce significantly our overhead and invest more fully in the delivery of care and discipleship to men, women and families.

As a part of this restructuring, we are shifting our support raising platform to a ministry called ThreeSixty, a 501(c)(3) non-profit registered in the state of Colorado, which has serviced ministries and missionaries since 1993. 

Donations to support Redeemed Seasons and/or Mark and Christy Summers are now made to and through ThreeSixty, who will process the donations, forward the funds to us to support our ministry work, and provide our donors with the documentation they need for the charitable tax deductions. The existing “Give” links on our Redeemed Seasons website now point to ThreeSixty.  

How You Can Help

We are deeply grateful for everyone who has supported Redeemed Seasons through the years, and we are praying that our current donors and financial partners continue their faithful support for our ministry by shifting their giving to ThreeSixty. 

To make that shift, we are asking our donors to give through our ThreeSixty giving page at this link - https://give.y360.org/give/summers. 

On our ThreeSixty giving page, you will find an online form for setting up a new donation, either recurring or one-time gift, to our ministry via debit or credit card. We ask our existing recurring donors to contact us by email, so we can cancel your existing recurring gift when you create the new one. We are hoping to transition all our donors to ThreeSixty by the end of September.

We are committed to clear communication and faithful stewardship throughout this transition. If you have any questions or would like more details about what this change means, we would be glad to connect with you.

Thank you for standing with us and for your continued partnership as we enter this new chapter.

For anyone interested in making a tax-deductible contribution to Redeemed Seasons, please visit our Giving page at https://www.redeemedseasons.org/give.

Grace and peace.

Mark and Christy
