Where We Are Now
After finding and remediating mold twice in our Colorado home, we abandoned ship in October 2008. Because of the high levels of exposure, our entire family was affected. After months of seeing different specialists for all of the problems, we came to Arizona to begin comprehensive treatment to rid our bodies of the toxic buildup. In August 2009 we moved into a larger home, four bedrooms, south of Tucson, north of Mexico. I am doing my daily radio program/ writing from that location. Thanks for praying for us. We really feel it.

Earlier this year Andrea and I did a program on Building Relationships with Dr. Gary Chapman that covered pre-marital counseling and how important it is. One couple Gary interviewed was Westin and Heather.
Saturday, we attended their wedding, and what a treat to see two young people who love God and love each other. They did something I've never seen done before. There was a small chalice with two openings on either side. On the front was a bear claw and on the back, a maze. The Lakota Tribe used this in their wedding ceremonies, evidently, and the claw represented strength and the maze was the journey of life the couple would now begin.
Before they drank from it, both mothers came up and poured water in the chalice and then the pastor who performed the ceremony poured water, representing their families of origin and Jesus. Then, Heather and Westin drank from the cup.
It was a moving wedding ceremony and since Westin's dad is one of my best friends, a moving time for us all. God bless the union of Heather and Westin!
