Hello Friends & Family,

What a season it has been. From starting a relationship to getting engaged and now married! It has all gone by so fast but as I reflect back on the past few years and the entirety of my life I am in awe of God’s faithfulness. Only God can bring two people from entirely different backgrounds and place them together at just the right time. Now that we are finally married we are starting a completely new season in our lives. One of the biggest changes yet perks of the married life is being together almost all of the time. Unlike dating there is no separating at the end of the day and I must say I absolutely love it. If you didn’t know I am 99.9% a people person and love to be around others almost all of the time. I am sure there are some of you that can relate unless I am just that rare bread, but I highly doubt it. There is however that occasional 5 minutes I need alone and of course time to spend with God, but other than that I’m all about the people. Corey on the other hand needs a little more time to regroup and his alone time is of the upmost importance which can at times be difficult for me. I don’t always know what to do with myself. I am assuming that over time that will change and I will start wanting that time alone, yah?!? Ladies, this is your time to moment to comment below and let me know I am not alone. Also, if you have any newlywed advice please share! None the less Corey is also a huge peoples person and loves spending time with others and building relationships. He is actually the more outgoing of the two of us and can strike up a conversation with anyone. Just the other day we were out garage sailing one of our favorite hobbies to do together and the moment he stops onto the property he is in his zone talking to every person that passes by. People seem to gravitate towards him and I have to say that was one of his qualities that caught my eye before we started dating.

I’m not sure if you have noticed but I absolutely love writing which wasn’t always the case. For the life of me I could not write and all throughout high school and college I would be up for hours the night before cramming in my 15 page paper. My best friend could contest to that. Anyways, I realize I completely went off topic and talked about Corey and I for a bit, but our hope is that we can use this as a tool to not only keep you updated but interact with one another. Also, it’s a way for those of you who don’t know us on a more intimate level to get good gage on what we are like, our personalities and why we love what we do which is serve Jesus. Our goal is continue building our relationship with you all the while keeping you informed of what’s going.

As we begin this new season together we are able to focus on getting fully funded and hopefully launching into full-time ministry by the beginning of 2022. Now, there is quite a bit that needs to be accomplished between now and then, but we know that with God ALL things are possible. As we move forward our plan is to continue to build our team by meeting with potential partners and using all our resources to form new contacts. In just a few weeks we will be headed out on a short road trip to New York to do just that. So as your praying keep us in your prayers that God would place it on peoples hearts to partner with us.

Once again thank you for all your love, prayers and financial support. The vision God has placed in our hearts could not be accomplished without you. We look forward to continuing our relationship with each and every one of you and who knows maybe one day you will boarding a plane to come visit us in Africa.
