After working together in ministry for years, we began dating and are now married. Seeking to serve God in a teaching ministry abroad, Thomas has enrolled in Westminster Theological Seminary, where he will be equipped for the work God has for him in the future.

Direction?

Erin and I have decided to join the church we have been attending for the past months (Calvary Orthodox Presbyterian Church). We have really appreciated the solid sermons, friendly congregation, serious worship, warm fellowship, and sound theology we have found there. We have had dinner with the pastor and his wife twice, and were able to talk openly with them about where we are coming from and where we think we are headed. It has been so nice to experience such a welcoming reception and openness from the man who fills the pulpit.

In a bulletin insert this morning, we noticed an OP missionary that teaches at a theological college in South Africa. Of all the places we have been on mission trips, South Africa was our favorite, and though we are certainly open to the Lord's calling us elsewhere, we have long hoped to return there to do long-term mission work. The work Brian and Dorothy Wingard are doing there sounds like the sort of thing we believe He would have us do, so we were excited to see such a connection with the church we plan to join! Please pray that God would continue to direct us in pursuing His will for our lives.
