Our Journey Has Begun

Our Journey Has Begun

Actually, it began back in October of 2016.  It has taken us this long to get things settled to a place where we can gather our thoughts and share them.  Life has been a whirlwind. When we left Awana in late September 2016 (after 15 years), we didn’t know what God had for us.  We […]
