When beginning Shepherd’s Hill Academy Trace Embry was over his head.

God’s Work

However, God worked in that period.

God’s Work

We were stepping into something that was way out of our league. However, that seems to be just where God wants people in ministry- out of their league. It wasn’t until the birth, life, and death of our youngest son that we really got the memo. When we realized that we wanted our son back, or that we didn’t want to lose him we would keep him just the way we had him. Then when he passed we thought, “Maybe we can love unconditionally. Maybe kids can live here and we can do what we need to do to treat them like our own. If we can trust Him with that then we can trust Him with more.”
