Keith & Pam (Johnson) Rinas

Stanwood, Washington

Children: Brandon (12), Jesse (11), Ashley (9), Ali (7), Jordan (3), Abi (5 months).

   Here we are in year 2000, happily married for 13 years with six children. I guess that lets you know what we have been up to-hahahaha.
   Keith owns and operates his own service business refinishing counter tops and bath tubs. He also manufactures and ships a specialty paint. Pam keeps him and the other six going. We also homeschool.
   We continue on this Christian pilgrimage loving going from glory to glory.
   Hospitality is really our favorite thing. If you are ever near Seattle, we are good for a bed and a meal.

 

 

Matt & Liz (Jeffries) Schoenfelder

Lancaster, Pennsylvania

    Liz and I are truly blessed to live on a beautiful farm with our two sons, Luke (11) and Noah (8). I have taught 5th grade in a public school for almost 7 years and investing in these young lives has been a joy--most of the time that is. Having lots of free time during summers has allowed us to take several cross-country trips, and to keep up with visits to the relatives. Thankfully most of our relatives live in warmer climates with fun and scenic places to visit.
    Liz is doing a wonderful job homeschooling both boys and has also worked as a waitress at a local restaurant. She has just started a new job taking phone orders for a huge pet supply house, eventually, they have bigger plans for her to develop some new business. We've been blessed by some great involvement in local churches, but also frustrated that the level of intimacy we experienced at LDM is very hard to come by. We are not sure what God has for us in the future and simply want to echo the words from the Steven Curtis Chapman song, "I'm livin' the next five minutes." If we do that well, everything else will fall into place properly!
