Taylor's Ministry Updates!

Hi everyone, As expected, May was a very eventful month. We wrapped our final programming at SMU for the semester, sent off 100+ students from Dallas/Fort-Worth to SICM, and most importantly, Audrey was born!

This month has been so fun (and also stressful). Fun because the semester is wrapping up, which means we've been having lots of special events!

Aaron stumbled into our small group by accident last year after a run and stuck around ever since! He and I have studied the bible weekly over the last year and he has grown imme...
