A Defining Moment

"In a time when I was teaching Deaf students in a public high school, God called me into full-time missions during a service at church. Soon after, the Lord brought into my life my husband who was headed into mission. We have had the privilege of serving the Lord in missions since then. I have learned so much about God and His Word through brothers and sisters all over the world as we have served alongside them."
