Stages of Life

I've posted below a picture of us in Pennsylvania a few days after our wedding. We thought that would be our home and area of ministry immediately after our marriage, but the Lord had different plans. We moved from Guam to Michigan to get married. The day after our wedding we moved to Pennsylvania. We got there expecting that there was a job waiting for at least one of us and thinking our housing was arranged at least until the winter. We met with the HR director who thanked us for coming and told us he would let us know if there were any openings. Needless to say, we were in shock. We had just moved everything and planned to start our life together there, but it seemed the Lord was closing the door. He confirmed that a week later when our housing situation fell through. Now with no jobs and no place to stay, we felt it was time to move somewhere else. So, on August 6, 2003, we departed Pennsylvania and headed towards Florida. More to come on the stages of life we have been through and the many places we have lived in the past two and a half years.

Hey Sandra,
Don't know if you remember me - I was a math nerd friend of your pal Vanessa pritchard at nbbc. Oh, and I'm still best pals with the crazy kathleen vasquez (nee mcfadden) who I think you were friends with. Congrats on your wedding! I heard somewhere that the average age of the american bride is 26. :) I know, I was getting worried too when I was 23 and still not even dating. God sure knows what He's doing though, eh? Do you still in florida? I checked out your website/ebay store. Unfortunately I'm not into disney or scrapbooking otherwise I'd love to help our your business. Do you still keep in touch with Vanessa?

I'm enjoying reading about how God has led the 2 of you in the past couple years! It is so neat to see how God brings couples together in His perfect timing and then where He leads them from there.

I'm also enjoying reading all the blogs of NBBC alumni--lots who I don't actually "know," but it is so neat to see what everyone's up to, anyway! :)

Take care, and I look forward to reading more of your adventures!
