Oklahom(e)a


Since arriving in Oklahoma last March, we have seen a lot of change. We’ve seen the weather change from a late Spring snow storm, to tornado warnings, to Summer heat, and now to a very slight taste of an upcoming Fall. We've also seen changes at The Voice Of The Martyrs as the organization has now fully moved into their brand new Operations Center.
And, there is another change that we are excited to share. It’s a change in our status as year-long volunteers with The Voice Of The Martyrs (VOM).

As most of you know, Christy and I had committed to serving here in Oklahoma for one year with VOM as volunteers. But recently, we have been offered positions on staff. Christy is now the full time Housing Manager/Assistant to the Facilities Director, and I am currently the part time Resource Assembly Assistant.

What this means for us is that Oklahoma has become "home."

We have been here nearly six months, and now that we know that we will be staying longer than one year, we will begin to settle in a more permanent fashion. It's time to begin switching license plates, drivers licenses, and insurance. It's also becoming increasingly more important that we sell our home in Ohio!

It's been an amazing journey over the past few month. We look forward to continuing to share our lives with all of you.
