Robert and I just got home from the grocery store and for those that don’t know–that’s kinda a big deal! When we first accepted the job here at RiverStone there was never a thought in our mind about Robert finding a job. Well we were here about a month and a half when the Lord […]

“Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your sons will be like olive shoots around your table.” Psalm 128:3 This is the verse that the Lord gave Jason & Heather as they prepared to bring life into this world. For awhile there we called this little one Olive as we referenced […]
