City Year, where Shannon is currently employed, unites young people of all backgrounds for a year of full time service giving them the skills and opportunities to change the world.

Appalachia Service Project, where Shannon and I met in 2001, is very near and dear to our heart. ASP provides vital housing services to low-income families living in Central Appalachia as well as transformational life experiences to those we serve, volunteers offering their service, congregations involved with ASP, and entire communities.


The wedding weekend itself is coming together nicely...

-Our amazing, incredibly talented arrangement of musical talent has been finalized: Joe Fox and Alex Newton on Guitar, Marit Johnson on Violin, and Emily Feuerstein on vocals.

-Let there be GOLF! For whoever is interested, there is a block of tee times at the Crowne Plaza Golf Course (~$30 green fee) on Saturday, August 8th between 8 and 9 am. I'll be there and so should you.

-For those who are staying for an extended weekend and want to check out the area, this is a great website to start your planning.

-Our ceremony is tentatively slated to start at 5 o'clock in the evening. Please note this when making travel arrangements.
