Writing this is bittersweet in every way. February 13th will be the last day of operations at Crush. Crush has been more than a business to us. It’s where we started our marriage, where we welcomed our son into the world, and where we had the incredible honor of walking alongside friends who came to know the Lord. That alone makes every sacrifice worth it.
Our main purpose in life has always been to fulfill the Great Commission, and we can rest at night knowing that during our time here, we truly lived that out. We’ve watched faith grow, conversations turn eternal, and lives changed—often in the most unexpected moments. Seeing friends come to know Jesus because of this place is something we will carry with us forever.
As our family has grown, so have our responsibilities. Due to financial hardships and the season of starting and raising a family, the Lord has made it clear that it’s time for us to close this chapter and trust Him with what’s next.
“Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.”
— 1 Corinthians 13:7–8
Thank you for supporting us, loving us, praying with us, and doing life with us here. Thank you for making Crush what it was. Though the doors are closing, we know the seeds planted will continue to grow—and that’s what truly matters.
We would love nothing more than to celebrate together during our last week, to hug you, laugh with you, and say our heartfelt “see you laters.”
Join us for our Customer Appreciation Day on February 13th as we spend one last day thanking you for the love, support, and community you’ve poured into this place. It wouldn’t be the same without you.
With gratitude and love,
The Mayes đź’Ś
