Read about Mike Slaughter's practice of retreat during Lent on his blog here.
He is the Pastor of Ginghamsburg Church which has become known as an early innovator of small group ministry, the Church “media reformation” and cyberministry, with the Ginghamsburg web site averaging 50,000 visits monthly from around the world. Since initiating The Sudan Project in January 2005, Ginghamsburg has invested nearly $5.6 million into humanitarian relief in Darfur. The resultant agricultural project, child development program and safe water initiative are expanding to reach a quarter of a million Sudanese refugees and villagers.
