Part of what I love about the girls' names is that they were both popular 100 years ago and many people with those names are now great-grandmas. Both names evoke a vision for me of sweet old ladies rocking away together on a porch. I pray Ella and Sadie will live meaningful lives full of love and will be enjoying each other on a front porch somewhere many years from now.

Our Life Group

A few months ago we were pretty sure we were going to leave our small group from church to lead a new one but God surprised us and gave us the opportunity to intensify the commitment and outreach aspects of our group and lead it! We went from meeting every other week for an hour and a half to every week for 3-4hrs. We're reading a really challenging book (Radical by David Platt, which I highly recommend) that is changing all of us. We're also in the process of starting to do outreach ministry together starting with some service projects in December. Thankful for this chance to regroup with people we've been with for 3 years and see what God has for us with this heightened level of following hard after Him.
