Christmas Letter

Merry Christmas from the Wilson's!  We wish you and your family a very special holiday season.

As 2010 draws to a close, we pause to thank God for his loving guidance and keeping grace.

Here are a few significant events from our household in recent months:

Our home sustained some storm damage from tornado-like winds this summer, and we lost many beautiful trees from our lawn.  All of old pines in front of the church were also destroyed. 


Driver's License!

Luke and Wes, along with their friend, Trevor, formed a band called Found Broken.  They were privileged to be the opening act for the Break the Grey Concert with Bill Ballenger.  It was an awesome event!  Luke plays guitar and leads worship often.  Wes plays bass, and provides lead vocals for the band.  They both have been composing original songs.  This year, Wes obtained his driver's license, and Luke landed a job at Pizza Hut.


Hannah has become a babysitter in high demand.  She loves working in the church nursery, and visiting the elderly in the nursing homes.  She plays violin with Northwoods Strings, and loves going to Youth Group.


Ryan, a senior at Indiana Wesleyan University in Christian Ministries, is prayerfully considering the next chapter of his life. 


Adam and Allegra live in Cedar Falls, Iowa, where they are students at UNI (University of Northern Iowa.)  Adam also works at John Deere in the engineering department, and Allegra has recently started a new job at Bathworks.


Cathy continues to homeschool, play viola, and lead the Bible Quizzing program at the church.  This year was a milestone for her, as she achieved her weight loss goal, and has really committed herself to physical fitness.


Mark is in his 20th year as Senior Pastor of Hayward Wesleyan Church.  He is currently writing a book with Wesleyan Publishing House, which will likely be available sometime in 2011.
