Our Story...

Our story... wow. So much to say. Where to start? How do we even adequately express all that God has done in our lives? The redemption, the stretching, the beauty from our messes, the so many blessings, the stripping of control, the journey we never thought we'd do... wow.

Here's just a small glimpse of "us" and "our story" ... at least from the past few months... This will be added to the "Our Story" section soon.



***A HUGE shout out to Corey Lamb and the communications team at our church for putting this together as part of our send off. YOU.ARE.AWESOME. ***

    Awesome video! It lets others, like me, that don't know you personally, get a glimpse into your life. Your faith in God is a "Beautiful Thing" :)

    So blessed to see this today. I just returned from Chande orphanage in Kitwe, Zambia at 1 am this morning. Loved, loved, loved the children. You will be blessed beyond measure...

    Excited for your sweet family. Our lives are very similar to yours - adoption of 2 of our 4 out of foster care and then a move last year to a remote part of Honduras to serve orphans and vulnerable children here.

    Praying that you are blessed beyond measure. There will be amazing days and dark days. If your experience is anything like ours, you will feel spiritual warfare in an intensity unknown prior to your move into missions.

    Many blessings to you,
    Laura
