John's Story
Sarita & I will celebrated our 52nd anniversary August. 2nd! We have two beautiful daughters and eight fantastic grand children!
Three of our grands are marrIed and we now have three phenomenal great grandkids!!
Our life changed dramatically in 1973 and sharing our story will shock and I hope thrill you. I barely graduated, had a miserable home life, but a young lady believed in me. After a stint in the Army, we returned to Bloomington and I had a life changing experience as I became a Christ follower. Sounds really strange doesn't it? But what a difference it has made these past thirty five years. I went back to school, seminary, and graduate school and we have been serving in a children's ministry (Awana) since 1989. We were missionaries in KS/MO...Expand for more
, then regional directors over missionaries, now I am a trainer/coach for new missionaries. Along the way I was a youth pastor, senior pastor, itinerant preacher, camp and conference speaker. In 1995, I earned a doctorate in psychology and have a small practice in Topeka, KS for marriage and family counseling.
Forty years have gone by since I have seen most of you. But on occasion we get out the old yearbooks and ask "I wonder what they are doing now?" A few have passed away, most of you are successful with grown families like ours. But like me 35 years ago, maybe there is an emptiness you can't quite explain. We would love to share our story personally and expalin that the difference in our lives is having a personal relationship with Jeus Christ.
