What I'll Miss When We Move

We have lived in Emory, where my husband served Emory and Alba United Methodist Churches, for 5 years.  A couple months ago we were notified of Kelly's re-appointment to a 2-point charge outside of Baytown, in the Houston area. 

While we are excited to see the ministry God has in store for us in our new home, we are saddened to leave behind the people and places which have made this a home.

We will miss the people who make up the Alba and Emory UMCs.



















These are photos of some of our local 'haunts', including my nearly-daily Sonic Happy Hour stop, the Rains County Court House (yes, I even got a jury summons for less than 2 weeks before the move), Sunshine Acres Produce Stand, and Hooten's Hardware Store (which is hiding a wonderful kitchen department), and so much more.


Alba and Emory are located around Lake Fork.  This is a beautiful man-made lake which is renouned for fishing!


As we move forward in ministry, we pray that God continues to bless these churches and the faithful who worship in them.  We thank you for 5 wonderful years shared together.

  2. Jill, it was a pleasure to get to meet you and know you online, too - you will be missed. I wish you all the best in your new home, and pray God's blessings on your family and the new Ministry.
