Everyone has a story. Thanks for letting us share a little bit of ours. We met sixteen years ago. Our lives were a little messy at the time because we were trying to fill the emptiness in our hearts with the things of this world. Together we found Christ, were baptized and went into full time ministry. Today, we are passionate about reaching people for Jesus – because we understand what it's like to live in the dark. We have four amazing children – but guess what, they aren't perfect! Like all of us, they are a work in progress, but they are kind hearted, generous, and absolutely hilarious! We have been through a lot as a family, so we've learned not to take life too seriously. Some of our favorite things include hockey, afternoons at the lake, family game night, and making breakfast for dinner.
In addition to our amazing children, God has blessed us with an extended church family. Three years ago we began this journey, and we are extremely humbled and grateful for the team God has surrounded us with. None of us are perfect, but we are authentic, transparent and totally sold out for Jesus. Our heart is to transform lives and communities for Jesus – and we truly believe the best is yet to come!
