“You probably knew my son better than anyone and loved him right where he was. Turns out, THAT is what matters most in the end. I wish I could express how grateful I am for you and the Daystar Staff. “
That is what matters most in the end. These words were from a dear friend of ours whose son was a part of Daystar for most of his growing up years and whose life tragically ended just a few months ago. We did know him and certainly loved him. And we cherish these words from her.
Our fall at Daystar looks different—as does yours this year. Thankfully, we are counseling individuals and families in our offices and have been able to do so Covid-free for the entire summer. We also were able to have five of our seven sessions of Hopetown in person. And then, as the numbers spiked in Nashville in July, we felt like God was leading us to move the last two virtually. Two days later, the Kentucky Governor issued an ordinance saying no gatherings larger than 10. God has graciously kept Daystar going all summer—whether in Kentucky or in Tennessee.
We are so grateful to be in the business of knowing and loving kids right where they are. Especially in these days, with so much sadness and anxiety, so much hopelessness, so much that is just unknown—we are profoundly grateful to be able to offer hope to over 1700 children and families in the middle Tennessee community. And we are just as grateful for you and your support of our little yellow house. It’s in an honor to be in the knowing and loving and hoping business with you.
Gratefully,
The Daystar Staff
