We met him for the first time seven and a half years ago.  The occasion?  The wedding of his oldest brother.  Donald, their mother Mama Helene, their little sister, and a couple of other people all stayed here at Shiloh during the days leading up to the wedding of Francis and Ingrid.  Donald did not yet know the Lord, but there was just something special about him.  We began praying that he would join God's forever family before it was too late.  And we can honestly say that we loved him right from the start.  A handful of years later he DID give his heart and life to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  And he's been growing in grace ever since.  In addition we began praying for a wife for him.  And today, this very day, Donald brought his future wife to us.  We have been hearing good things about her from Francis, but we have finally seen her with our own eyes.  She is everything we have been praying for and more.  She completes him.  We couldn't be happier for him if we tried.  And on December 29th we will be at their church for their wedding with bells on our toes!
