More important than gifts…
June 7, 2008 Author: Joseph
Shannon and I will be traveling to Kenya after we get married, where Shannon will be using her gifts as a doctor. Here is a little something about what she is going to do while there:
I will be working at Tenwek Hospital, a famous medical missionary hospital located in the Rift Valley of Kenya. It serves a surrounding population of 6,000 people with medical care and most importantly spiritual care. While serving there, for my second time, from August 25-Sept 19th, I will be primarily working on the labor & delivery ward training to perform c-sections. I am learning this skill because it has the ability to save two lives. I will also work in the gynecology clinic and in the emergency room. The medical and spiritual need is great in many places in the United States, which is why I volunteer at free health clinics. This region of Kenya outside of Tenwek has a void of medical and spiritual health that is desperate for help. I can not ignore it. Thankfully, the hospital is one of the safest, well established, healthy humanitarian hospitals in the developing world.
If you are interested in donating to this cause or another charity of your choice as your wedding gift to us, please feel free to do so. For this cause, make your tax deductible checks payable to “World Medical Missions.” Write in the memo section “To Brooke” and write on the check “Project #003618.”

April 8, 2008 Author: JosephI finally have all of the info posted on our wedding party. The things I have left: Proposal page, family page, pictures page, and perhaps a guestbook.
Ch…Ch…Ch…Changes
April 3, 2008 Author: JosephHere is another good reason to check out the website: I am changing this thing willy-nilly. I am sure there are some designer friends of mine that are appalled at the layout/design/color-scheme. Hopefully, every time that I am able to work on the site, something new will pop up and surprise you. Be sure to check out the Event Map on the Accommodations page. I will stick it on the wedding details page as well. Have a great week!
Slowly working on the site
April 2, 2008 Author: JosephPlease forgive the messiness of the website. I am changing things so that it is all flowing smoothly.
Welcome
