About me

Introduction	Can you change your whole life? Sure you can! Following a tug that has pulled at our hearts for more years than we'd like to count, we have done just that. Changed our "comfortable" lives and looked beyond anything we had ever dreamed. Has it been easy? NO! It has required painful sacrifices. Not the material things so much, those have been easier. The moving, being away from family, friends, lacking the resources we once had to visit more often....those things, those are the hard things. The journey itself, for two less-than-young people has been at times much more than we could handle in our own strength. But we have felt called, and we answered that call and it has been like careening down a steep, snowy slope, no brakes, head-on collision with life at its fullest! Exhausting and exhilirating. Sometimes we long for where we have come from and when our eyes look back we wonder and wish for a moment before hopping back into the present and going all out again. Could we go back? Maybe. But to do so we would miss the ride of our lives and the glory of it all, knowing we are right where God has us, and that is pure joy!
