The Last Hoorah





Chris held his final Senior High event at Alliance Friends yesterday evening. Just a normal Sunday night but incredibly bittersweet. Surrounded by teens and adults alike he spoke of his desire for all of them to know who they are and who God is. He told them their journeys will not be easy but they don't have to travel alone. He encouraged them to cling to their Heavenly Father who will never leave them and loves them unconditionally.

I don't think there was a dry eye at the end of his prayer.

I am so proud of Chris. He is an incredible husband, father, friend, and pastor. Knowing that he is leaving his students and adult volunteers breaks his heart. But God has called us on a new journey and we must be faithful.

We head to Canton with pieces of our hearts still in Marysville (love you all) and now also in Alliance.

It is my hope that this blog will help us all stay connected!
