Pirate memories . . .

This season of our lives has been very sweet. It's been a joy and honor to stand beside you and watch the Lord work in your life as he worked in those you ministered to. I've loved being your helper in this ministry to college students and I'm glad to be your helper as we move in a new direction. I love you very much and I thank God often for your labor of love to the students He placed at East Carolina University. I wanted to include just a few pictures from this last year. Our family will always love Pirate Football. Tailgating before the game with a group of college students and having fun *without alcohol* is unheard of on most campuses. I'm thankful our children have this experience to draw from when they get to college.




This is one of my favorite pictures of you with the kids!


The first CRU meeting as the freshmen were taking the "Pirate Pledge" that you wrote. It's a hit with every class!



We LOVED going to CRU with you on Thursday nights. It's one of my sweetest memories as a family being involved in this ministry. I'm thankful that C and Lydia have had the privilege of seeing their daddy preach the word boldly on the campus of East Carolina University. I'm also thankful for the countless hours of having students in our home to study the bible, pray together and enjoy true community. Our children have been exposed to what it looks like to "live a life of ministry" and I give thanks to God.
