Engagement of Joshua & Andrea


I'm very happy to announce that last Saturday, Andrea Noah and I got engaged. Our courtship over the last four months has been an amazing experience. We look forward to many years of joyful service to God together. Praise the Lord, for he has blessed me with far more than I could ever deserve!



Fall in the Linville Gorge

Stephen and I with several others went backpack camping in the Linville Gorge this past week. We went to Hawksbill Mountain, and down to the river via the Devil's Hole Trail. Here's a few pictures from our trip:

Massachusetts Tour Day 6: Adams Family

On our final day of touring we studied the Adams family - John, Abigail and their son John Quincy. We visited the presidential birthplaces, just a few dozen feet apart, and saw the Unitarian Church that they attended.
