...TO GIVE UNTO THEM BEAUTY FOR ASHES... ISAIAH 61:3

We are so excited to share our new beginning with the most beloved and important people in our lives! As you know, we are planning a celebration beginning on December 31, 2017. Please feel free to share your imagination and creative ideas. We love you all so much & can't wait to share the beginning of our new life with you! Our two separate and unique lives took us through both hills and valleys. In God's perfect time, He brought us together. After 2-3 dates, each of us knew that God was working in our lives by blessing us one with the other. We do not know what the future holds, but we know Who holds the future. We are trusting solely in God and His providence. We know that "...all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28). We give all praise, glory, & honor to our Heavenly Father, Who "...shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19). We are humbled and so extremely blessed by God's unfailing, unfathomable, and enduring love for us. Please lift our marriage up in prayer & know that we do the same for all of you. We love you so much and we cannot wait to become one family.

Most couples face challenges; ours were very unique. From doubt & mistrust to feelings of guilt, we were in unchartered territory. One Person remained constant: Our Heavenly Father, the Three in One triune, Holy, Faithful, Loving, & Kind God. Every time we stumbled, He patiently helped us up & used those stumbling blocks to build a bridge between two scared & hurting hearts. Father, may we be a constant, unwavering testimony of Your loving kindness, Your tender mercies, & ever present help. May our families be blessed through us.
