David’s Graduation

It's been a while since I've had the time to blog, so that means there is a lot to write about. Something very important happened and I think it deserves special attention. That important event is that David graduated from the Southwest School of Bible Studies on Sunday, July 15th! I am SO proud of him!

Southwest is a two-year, intensive Bible study program located at the Southwest Church of Christ in Austin, Texas. The school goes year round, with a few weeks off for a summer break in July and August. It's basically four years of school crammed into two years. The students stay very busy!

David has learned so much about the Bible. We have been very blessed by multiple congregations around the United States who supported him financially through school. It was a great learning experience that not everybody is able to have. We are forever thankful for their generosity. 

Now that David has graduated, he's working as the associate minister intern for the Roanoke Church of Christ in Roanoke, Texas. If you'd like to know more about that, you can read my previous post filled with details here.

Congratulations and good job, David!

David Got a Job

I’m proud to announce that David has accepted a job. He was offered multiple preaching positions, including one in Arkansas, but after a long time of praying and thinking we finally decided.

David is now the Associate Minister for the Roanoke Church of Christ in Roanoke, Texas. This is a two and a half year internship. He will get a lot of hands-on training that you can’t learn in a classroom. This really is a once in a lifetime opportunity for him. It’s going to make him an even better preacher.

David graduates from Southwest School of Bible Studies on Sunday, July 15. We will be moving up to Roanoke either Tuesday or Wednesday that week so we can be at Bible Study on Wednesday night.

The Dallas/Fort Worth area is completely new to both of us. We’ll be kind of far from our families, but we have each other and our church family. I’m just glad we’re still in Texas! 

I’ve already started job searching for myself. I’m hoping to use my public relations degree, but I’m staying open minded since job opportunities are still hard to find. 

Please keep us in your prayers as we travel and transition into this new area and new work.
