For over 20 years, Mike and Robyn Carnill have committed their lives to strengthening the relationships of others with Jesus, which is the basis of Abide. Whether it happens through one-on-one discipleship, prayer, solitude retreats, deep friendships, or some other way, Mike and Robyn desire to see anyone who is willing to listen to Jesus come to live more fully in him. Throughout its history, Abide has changed and grown, reminiscent of the vine growing from the branch that Jesus desires our lives to be. In the beginning, Abide thrived as Mike and Robyn made themselves available to others on an individual basis, which they still do; however, Abide now welcomes and provides a way for others to love those God is calling them to love. Abide currently hosts other families and individuals who are serving others in a variety of ways, giving them meaingingful coaching, oversight, and a tax-deductible organization in which to raise funds as they begin their journey of strengthening others in Jesus.
Abide Ministries and the Abide Collective are made up of an extremely diverse group of people, each with a unique set of gifts and relationships. It’s a large task to ensure that every gift that comes in is accounted for, every paycheck is sent, and every issue of compliance handled properly. This is where Chelsea comes in, and she does a brilliant job.An entrepreneur herself, Chelsea is a rock-solid administrator who makes life for everyone within Abide easy, and for that, she is well loved by everyone she works with. When she’s not running her own business or the finances and accounting for Abide, you can find her driving her Jeep through the wildnerness or getting to know her neighborhood in the city of Detroit better.
