My time with Rob, Jeanie, and the boys has been busy and refreshing all at the same time. My time here has gone so quickly, but I’m thankful for the time I have had. This last week has been packed with looking for the “big five”, participating with Jeanie in ministry with the women at […]

We are so excited to have Elizabeth here with us in a few short days. I remember meeting her mom, Rose, about 15 years ago at church. Rose was our wedding coordinator, then a mentor mom at MOPS, and shortly after Avery’s accident she also became our homeschool coordinator, when we decided to homeschool. Rose […]

Today we celebrate Siyabonga’s 13th birthday. What a joy to have Siyabonga in our lives regularly. We adore his calm and easy-going personality with looks and funny faces that always make us laugh.

The first time we met Andrew, he was filling-in as the Pastor at our church over Christmas. He was also in my dad’s 5-week Bible study, and has become our friend. While he was in prison he came to know the Lord, and now he has a passion to minister to the people he works […]
