Shortly after this epic event, The Calling sustained a series of unfortunate events that caused a temporary slowdown for the ministry.  A large portion of the funds raised were discovered stolen by someone who was close to the nonprofit, and then Chrysandra was diagnosed with Lyme disease.  Despite what felt like desperate circumstances, the vision carried on throughout that broken season and continued to have a strong presence in Colorado and across America.
