My Reunion Group

This will be changing because our TGIF Reunion group is now defunct... So for now... these are some friends

Cathy - She was my MMO boss and is a wonderful friend. It is so wonderful having her experience to help me through some of my stuff! She is a Mom of 3

Lonnie - Lonnie and I knew who each other were, but it wasn't until we were in reunion group together that we became friends. God told me she is going to be on my music team when I am Lay Director... with the Walk being cancelled this summer, not sure if she will be able to do it now. She is the Mom of 3. She is now in Nebraska... but we still talk all the time!

Kathy - Kathy and I have worked together in MMO for a couple years. She is in nursing school. Miss her bunches! She is the mom of 3.

Sherri - Sherri and I first met when I was her table leader on her walk. It was kinda cool, even though we went to the same church, she got put at my table cuz I didn't know her and now we have become really good friends. She is the mom of 4.

Matt & Pam G. - Matt & Pam we met through DJ about 14 years ago. We only see each other a few times a year, but they are wonderful friends, and we know that we could turn to them if we needed something. They have been living in Romania for 3 years,and just got home around Thanksgiving...
Ben - Matt and Pam's son. Loves sports! Another one that totally adores DJ.

Dave & Rhonda Y. - We met Dave & Rhonda through DJ about 14 years ago. Dave and Ken have kindred spirits with their love of Baseball. The guys keep talking about a crosscountry road trip to check out the different stadiums. The Lord has brought us together with these friends and it is just amazing how close you can be with someone you only see a few times a year. Dave has decided to become a minister, so they have moved to Kentucky so he can go to seminary... and then Rhonda decided to become a Decon... they should graduate the same year. At least we get to see them at Annual Conference!!
Taylor - Dave and Rhonda waited many years for their gift from God, and were blessed in 1999 with their beautiful son.

David & Donna M. - Donna sponsored Ken and I when we went on our Walk to Emmaus weekends. David is very active in Kairos, which is a variation of Emmaus, for prisioners and this past summer was commissioned as a local Pastor and got his own church down in Buellah.
