FIELD
Dawn Sanders officially joined Missions Door in 2007 after working with Campus Ambassadors as a layperson since 2005. In 2007, Dawn also began a friendship, and then a courtship with Reggie, her future husband. After the couple married, they began a ministry for singles, as well as courting and engaged couples called A Cord of Blue.

It was birthed at Infusion, CA’s annual Leadership Conference for the Northeast region, when Dawn and Reggie shared their testimonies, and the biblical principles they learned and sewed into their relationship. A Cord of Blue was created to serve those considering the transition from singleness to marriage.

Many singles are moving from one relationship to another only to have them end in pain. The Sanders’ dream is to share the skills to navigate courting, dating or engaged relationships and break the cycle of painful, unproductive relationships as God did with them. They understand the issues facing single couples today and bring both the male and female views to the table. Reggie and Dawn have spoken to singles of all ages at churches, retreats and universities.

FAITH
Dawn was raised to love Jesus and has for as long as she can remember. It was while visiting a cousin in Orlando, Florida, that she learned of her responsibility to acknowledge her need and formally accept Jesus Christ, which she did at the age of 12. Though her family attended church her whole life, Dawn did not learn that she was to make Jesus her Lord, not just her Savior.

Through the eulogy of a friend’s father, God led her to her current church home where she began discipleship, submitting her life to Jesus totally. Here, she also began service in the church, embraced her gift to teach, accepted her call to ministry, and entered seminary.

FAMILY
Dawn and Reggie were married in March 2009. Reggie was taken home to be with his Lord on June 9, 2011, just two years after their wedding. Dawn continues their ministry, A Cord of Blue, using the wonderful wisdom and insight their too-short earthly relationship gave them as a couple.
