For many of us, if someone came up, put a gun to our head, and told us to renounce what we believe in or die, the answer would be simple.
It’s easy to believe that we would die for our beliefs.

After years, it might begin to take a toll. You might lose heart.
You might throw in the towel.

Since I had to take this week off, we decided to try and make the most of it!
We started by spending a few days with Steph’s folks up near Williamsburg. It was great to (for once) not be on a very short schedule, so we were able to spend time with some great folks!
We paid Steph’s youth leader, Miss Mary, a visit. And then we got to spend some time with ‘Ma-Roo’ and ‘Fa-Roo’ (you’ll have to ask Steph for an explanation on the names).
We also spent a fun afternoon walking around colonial Williamsburg.
