Dear Keith,
Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas to you and yours. May all your days be blessed.
As “mature” teens, God called Kathy and me into ministry. We had received His great love in Jesus Christ and felt Him compelling us to move to New York to give ourselves in service to boys and girls in inner-city neighborhoods through the ministry of Camp Shiloh. That’s where we met and decided to marry.
When we married in August 1970, we moved to inner-city Los Angeles to finish college at Pepperdine. George Pepperdine's life motto, adopted by the university and characteristic of God’s call on our lives, were Jesus' words: “Freely ye received, freely give.”
Following that call, and His commission to “go into all the world” opened our lives to many adventures of significance.
