Heather will be posting HER side of the engagement story soon....but in the meantime, we wanted to put a little more detail about wedding arrangements here, before the big day:
We're getting married soon! =) And while we are honored to receive gifts, and there are many items we could certainly use to begin our lives together, we also recognize that by the world’s standards we are already quite rich, and have much more than we need to survive. Therefore, we’d like to encourage you to also consider giving a gift in our honor to one of the following organizations, which work to minister to those in need and share the Good News of Christ around the world. We will not refuse gifts of course, but please consider giving even 10% of what you would have spent on gifts for us to one of these places in addition to a gift. Thank you in advance for all the ways that you bless us, and support us in our love for each other and our brothers and sisters around the world!
"Partnering with Christian communities to strengthen their youth ministry."
Click on Sponsor Ministry, scroll to bottom for all options. This is the organization that brought us together, after we both served with their year-long ministry teams. This ministry is precious to us.
"Providing poverty relief and evangelism worldwide"
Click on Giving, then Gift Catalog. Consider helping prevent malaria, feeding a hungry baby or providing a hot meal, training a native believer to share the Gospel, giving a brood of chicks, or a wealth of other opportunities. You can even request an honor card to let us know that you chose to donate in our name.
