We Have Some News!
You may have been thinking, THEY'RE HAVING A BABY.
Nope.
A few months before our wedding, we were given the opportunity to teach elementary school in Costa Rica. However, that was not our Father’s plan. Instead, He called us to work in Montgomery, starting our marriage off surrounded by a community of family, friends, and others sharing our beliefs. Beginning in July 2015, He has called us to teach English at a Chinese university for two years. Many of our students will be the next generation of China’s leaders, so by teaching them English, we will have a huge impact on the country’s future. We can’t imagine any greater joy than sharing our lives with our students who are desperate for a greater purpose!

Trusting
Jesse and I have been learning a lot about what it means to truly trust His plan and patiently await His answers since our engagement.
Before our wedding, we were planning on moving to Costa Rica to teach at an elementary school immediately after our honeymoon. About 3 weeks before we got married, we received an email from the school saying they had decided to combine classes instead of hiring us as new teachers. We were a little upset, but the whole process of communication back and forth had been difficult the entire time, and the school did not seem to be very stable. It was good to hear a clear answer!
