Welcome dear family and friends, to this special celebration of my 50th birthday.

As I reflect on the journey of the past five decades, I am filled with deep gratitude for God’s grace and mercy upon my life and my family. His faithfulness has carried me through every season, and I am truly thankful to mark this Thanksgiving milestone surrounded by the people I love most.

I am especially grateful for each of you who will travel near and far, make sacrifices, and carve out time to be here with us. Your presence is a true gift. This weekend will be about connection, joy, and togetherness – all questions are welcome, laughter is encouraged, and memories are waiting to be made together.

As we gather this May, I look forward to spending meaningful, joy-filled time with each of you as we celebrate life, love, and God’s continued faithfulness.

”My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” 2 Corinthians 12:9
