We get to craft our story one page at a time every day. Sometimes it’s a struggle from sunup till sundown. Sometimes it’s one joy after the next. Most days are a mix of both.
But we are together, and together means a lot. We work, we learn, we stumble and fall, we get up and keep trying. We get frustrated and we forgive. We hang in there.
Ok team – Let’s go!

To make our home:
a refuge from the world,
a garden to grow a godly marriage,
a classroom to nurture the minds of our children,
a chapel to worship the living God,
and a lighthouse of hope for our community.

To love God,
each other,
our country,
and our world.
To celebrate each other for who we are and what we achieve;
to comfort each other in our needs and struggles.
To educate our minds to perceive
all that God has created.
To nurture our souls through submission
to the God who is.
To strengthen our bodies to service
