Living Outside Ourselves: Candace Sistig Gaeta

Candace shares how God continues to pave fresh, new avenues of ministry in their later seasons of life. She and her husband, Art, moved a few years ago from California to Arizona. They are now blessed to live very close to eight of their 21 grandchildren.

Described by others as a "mom magnet", Candace has a steady stream of young women coming to her for godly counsel. And at the age of seventy, Art recently flunked retirement and is now immersed in a new career, teaching Spanish at the junior high level for the first time.

Art and Candace are great examples of resilient adults who look for immediate, practical ministry possibilities. Continuing to live outside themselves, they reside far beyond the walls of self-pity and choose to be young enough to serve!
