Warmest greetings from Craig and Suzy! 

Craig and Suzy on Springer Mountain

We hope that this letter finds you and yours doing well during this winter season.  We would like to thank you for your faithfulness as we act on God’s guidance in our lives.  Without your prayers, financial support, and volunteer involvement, AT Servants could not be successful. 

Last year's accomplishments

God was fast acting and faithful in answering our prayers last year.  In August we founded a one-of-a-kind ministry and we wrote a 51-page ministry proposal that we submitted to the North American Mission Board (NAMB).  By October, we were accepted as missionaries under NAMB.

In November we created www.atservants.org to provide information about AT Servants and to network Trail Angel groups.  Please visit our website!

In December we prepared to move from Alabama back to the mountains and in January we moved to Cleveland, Georgia—only 25 minutes from the Appalachian Trail.  We are currently living a basement apartment for $375/month (utilities included).  Craig transferred jobs within Regions Bank and Suzy will start school again in the summer. 

This year will be an even busier year than last year.  This year we will:

• Train Trail Angels—Introduce churches in GA, NC, and TN to the Appalachian Trail and to train individuals and groups to be Trail Angels. If you or others are interested in being a Trail Angel, please contact us!
• Build relationships with hikers—Last year, prior to AT Servants, we were able to touch the lives of two hikers with the love of Christ. These hikers continue to stay in contact with us.  With your help as a volunteer, we can corporately impact the lives of about 100 hikers this year!
• Raise full-time financial support—With full-time support the Trail Angel ministry will be able to expand into the 14 states that host the Appalachian Trail and we will be able to begin the Trail Chaplain ministry. 

We are excited to watch God grow AT Servants as we begin to serve with you and other volunteers!
