50 Years together for my parents

God has been very good to our family, and just this weekend, our family was able to celebrate 50 years of marriage for my parents, the Archibald's. Thanks to everyone that helped us to celebrate this time with them, whether you were able to come, or whether you sent cards to them.

I was very proud of our daughter, Joy, as she worked so hard to make a beautiful
cake for them. She did a magnificent job and since she is only thirteen, I think she has many years of beautiful cake making ahead of her! We're very happy for you, Joy, and thanks for working so hard!

If you want to view a video of thanks to the Lord that we made for the anniversary, as well as a power point slide show of pictures, visit this link.


God has been good to totally change a family that was destined for ruin. My father was successful in the world of business, but those who knew him knew that he was an alcoholic. He and my mother were far from God, but God came very near to them and made them an offer that has forever changed their lives--and ours. Everything that we enjoy today is a gracious gift that cost God dearly, but that has meant everything to us. God is good!
