Changes are coming.....


FINALLY! Have you ever wished for something your entire life, and then after over 25 years, it finally came true? Well, that is what has happened. Jimmy has ALWAYS wanted to be in the field of law enforcement, and after many years of thinking about it, praying about it, filling out applications, taking tests, working out, watching COPS every Saturday (even on our honeymoon :)) etc., it has finally come true. Starting July 7, Jimmy will be a Gwinnett County Sheriff Deputy. Not only will Jimmy have a new job, our family will forever change. Shift work, uniforms, guns, mean people..... Jimmy can handle it. Thank you to those who have traveled this journey with us. It is just the beginning!

World Changers and Our Family

I write to you from my 6th year at World Changers Summer Staff Training as a National Staff member. I can remember my first year at training how concerned I was that I was so close to the age of those serving on Summer Staff, that it would be hard for me to lead them. Now, 6 years later, I am 32, and anywhere from 8-12 years older than our Summer Staff. I was once in their shoes....as was Jimmy.....and that is how we met. So many memories, life-changing experiences, and I know there are so many more to come.
