Our House

Our Little House

We have been married for a little over 7 months and we could not have been more blessed than to have spent our first season of being married in Shell Beach. After several months of searching and applying for various rentals the Montecito house basically fell into our lap. The kitchen table we found off craigslist led us to the house we live in currently. It has been such a cozy place with so many great memories together as a couple and in community with our friends. We actually fit 15 people in our family room one time, for dinner and a worship night. I am sure the whole neighborhood heard us singing! After a couple months of conversations, praying, and mulling over lists of pro's and con's of moving we decided to move about a week ago. We are moving to Oceano March 6th. We quickly got approved for this new home right next to Oceano Elementary school. After about a week Michael said "lets do it!" In many respects it is a step of faith for us as our rent is much more, we are desiring to have a roommate, and we want to open our home to whomever wants a warm meal and some fun company:) Well, this is the short version of this transition but if you want to talk more about it we'd love too. Michael needs to use the internet to get instructions on how to fix his motorcycle now...bye!!

You are loved

You are beautiful

You are priceless

And not forgotten

There will be a day

A house on a hill

Just for you

No more pain

No more fear

A warm blanket

& bread

Just for you

But until that day

You are loved

You are beautiful

You are priceless

And not forgotten

Wet Puddles Fill the Cold Street

New Growth Awaits Us

Friendship: Weekend in Lake Arrowhead

Our Fun weekend in Lake Arrowhead...

We are so thankful for our friends in Orange County! I (jen)  have been friends with this group of people since I was 15 when I first became a christian.  I can't believe we have walked through life with each other for almost ten years.  I remember when I first became a believer God flooded my life with amazing believers who had passionate hearts to worship Him.  My high school years were a foundational time in my walk with Jesus.  I learned about the realness and closeness of God.  I discovered my gifts.  And I learned what it meant to be free in worship and prayer.   I truly can say I experienced a taste of heaven in worshipping my Savior.  God has provided so many amazing people in my life throughout each season and I am so thankful for the friends who have been there in every season. I love you guys! 

How do we love?

We learn to love like Jesus Does

Selflessly

Sacrificially

Fearlessly

Nonjudgmental

Wholeheartedly

Unconditionally

Generously
