Please rejoice in the Lord with us as we announce…
Sarah and Eric H., a godly young man from the Atlanta, GA area, are now engaged to be married!
In God’s providence, our families got to know each other over the last few years with some conference visits, home visits, and some email correspondence. In May, Eric and Sarah started seeking the Lord’s wisdom in a courtship to determine whether it would please Him for them to marry. After gaining the prayerful blessing of both sets of parents, Eric proposed to Sarah this past Labor Day weekend – and she said Yes!
“I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness:
and thou shalt know the Lord.”
Hosea 2:20
We do praise our gracious God for the work He has done in the hearts and lives of Eric and Sarah and our families. He is very good!
Please pray for them as they continue to seek to honor the Lord in their wedding and their married life together.
“The Lord is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works.”
Psalm 145:9
~ Tom & Deb

Congratulations! How wonderful! I see several wedding quilts in your future!

Congrats to the happy couple! I'm afraid, though, that this presents a conundrum. If I was to attend the wedding, I would be obliged to respond @ the end of the ceremony...when the pastor asks if anyone knows of any reason the couple shouldn't be joined. I mean, don't get me wrong. I'm happy for all of you guys, but that happiness is superceded by my sadness/concern about who will oversee the "Holly Jolly Bingo" game this Christmas! I kinda think that these kinds of things of utmost importance must be worked out before the wedding planning! Priorities, Sarah...
Once that happens, I'll be ecstatic for the whole fam.
Love to all of you.
