Jenn’s Mission Trip to New Orleans

Thank you for praying for Jenn’s first mission trip. She and seventeen other Stetson students spent a week in New Orleans helping Habitat for Humanity.

I couldn’t do it justice so just click here to see the letter. (Use the slider under the left bottom corner of the letter to zoom in if you need to.)

Ben’s Engaged

We’re very happy to announce Ben’s engagement to Bonnie Jones. On October 23rd, Ben took Bonnie around to all the places that were special in their relationship. Then, as they were cruising down the Potomac, he got down on one knee and presented a beautiful engagement ring to her. Ben took this photo right afterwards with his phone with Bonnie happily showing off her ring. This past week, they asked Josh to be the best man and asked Jenn to be a bridesmaid. We’ll all be heading to Virginia for a beautiful wedding on May 14th next year. So… you’ll … Continue reading Ben’s Engaged
