About Us

Kristin is a Southern Georgia belle, who graduated from UGA as a veterinarian May 2010. Carter grew up in NC, went on to seminary, became an ordained pastor, and has completed his doctorate of ministry. After retiring from full-time ministry, Carter is thoroughly enjoying being a financial advisor (and volunteering on the ministry side of things). After about a month of emailing, asking questions, and going through the steps of eharmony.com, we were full of excitement and became very eager to meet one another face to face. October 25, 2009, we met and enjoyed every minute together. We had no doubt God was going to strengthen our relationship with Him as well as with one another. Carter proposed August 9, 2010 on the boat in the middle of Lake Wylie at sunset. Kristin said "Yes" after some happy tears. We got married April 2, 2011 and what an amazing beautiful day that was! God has continued to bless us throughout our marriage. On May 18, 2017, our family grew when God gave us our son, Micah. We look forward to see what He has in store for us each and every day. We are super blessed to be serving the Lord wherever we are. God is constantly surprising us with new callings!

Another God Wink

These days, if we want to go enjoy the beach, we get up early, go play and swim for an hour, two, or so, and then get out of dodge before tourists bombard the area. (Thanks to COVID-19.)

This morning, we enjoyed a walk to the pier, while our little guy ran pushing his truck.  Waves rolling. Breeze actively blowing. Sun rising. Fun family time.


After our walk, I was standing at the shoreline praying and watching my guys in the ocean.  (Yes, Micah is part fish like his mommy and daddy.) As the waves crashed into them, I had a “God wink.” Micah trusts Carter so much in the ocean that he wasn’t even a bit worried about all of those waves.  He knew his daddy would hold on to him through the laughter and crazy water.

 
Do we trust Our Father like Micah trusts his daddy?  Are we full of confidence that God has us in the palms of His hands?


All I could do was smile…I finished my prayer…and I watched the guys have a cool father-son moment (before mommy went swimming, too).  What an awesome amazing reminder of my many blessings The Lord has given us during this season of life none of us saw coming. (Thanks again to COVID-19.)


Yes, I do trust God!  I know His timing is best and that He has us all in His hands!
