God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. (Psalm 46.1)
Dear friends of Briarwood:
Briarwood Leadership Center is in close consultation with community partners, congregations, and NT-NL Synod leadership regarding summer programming. Although the situation remains fluid, we are still planning to move forward as scheduled. Decisions will be made regarding the shape and scope of summer programming by the middle of April. Should the situation require that summer programming be modified in significant ways (up to and including cancellation), you will be notified.
Briarwood staff are using this time to plan for the future while making significant improvements to our camp infrastructure. We intend to emerge from this crisis stronger and even better than before!
Disruptions in programming have already produced financial challenges. We therefore invite you to consider making a donation to Briarwood to ensure the sustainability of this ministry.
In the meantime, Briarwood is committed to the practices of physical distancing and social solidarity. We invite you to join us as we do our part to #FlattenTheCurve. For reliable information, visit the CDC website.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach us by email at programs@bwtx.org.
Blessings,
The Rev. Robert O. Smith, PhD
Director, Briarwood Leadership Center
