This phrase sums it up for us. So love is the constant. He first loved and so gave us the opportunity for life, life eternal. When our faith becomes sight and our hope is fulfilled. Love remains as the greatest. This gospel love is the foundation for our commitment to Christ, His church and the lost world. This love is the cornerstone of our family. May you be blessed by the words contained in this blog as it follows this journey we call life.

Trenton Baptist Winter Retreat

This past weekend, we headed to Pigeon Forge, TN to do a youth retreat. Jonathan, the youth pastor, (middle on the right) is Nick's best friend from college. Katie, his wife, is beside him and our friend Adam came as a chaperone. Jonathan and Katie have poured countless hours into these youth and we are encouraged by their faithful service. One of our prayer requests upon moving has been for more opportunites for Nick to preach and teach. Last week he was able to study and teach His Word almost more than he had time to prepare. We are grateful for our friendship with Jonathan and Katie and for the opportunity they granted Nick. It was a great weekend and we are prayerful for Trenton's youth that they might remain faithful as many of them head to college in the fall.
