The whirlwind continues as Dara and I have boarded a plane and are now off to Charlotte. We are having our third gathering (Friday night) of people who are interested in launching Hope Church with us in September.

I love heading places with Dara. Anything we do without kids feels like a vacation, so this is going to be so much fun! Just getting away together is such a great experience!

We get to have dinner tonight with some great friends (Justin and Melody Leedy) that already live in Charlotte. It’s so great to already have a couple that we know and love in the same area as Hope Church 🙂 I like to think of it as a little special blessing for us…
