Mark and Jill

We had the privilege of attending a reception for Mark and Jill Sunday night in Portland.
What a special evening to be able to meet the young lady (finally) who knocked him off his feet and won his heart. I used to tell him when he would begin to question his relationship with someone that he had to quit analyzing the whole situation and just "fall head over heels in love"
and quit questioning so much. Then finally one day last summer he called me and said "Know what, you were right!" That lucky young lady is Jill.

Now they are married and that long awaited event spurred a special ceremony Sunday night with four members of the past Bible Baptist "Blues Brothers" group from the 80's that were at the reception officially announcing their group had their MISSION ACCOMPLISHED after all these years. Each and every member of the official Blues Brothers was finally married.
The Blues Brothers name was officially set to see all the unmarried Bible Baptist young men married so they would be 'blue no more' - It took awhile but was finally accomplished in January when Mark got married ! It was quite a night of celebration to see to that mission succeed!

Jill is a very special young lady and we look forward to having her in the family. They will be coming to Astoria to meet everyone up here as soon as we can get a date set.

SO after 25 years of praying for this young lady, I finally know who she is and she was worth the wait. We do have a faithful God. Never give up when you ask for something and it just doesn't seem to happen. It is all in God's timing !!
