    Leaving my church after 26 years

    May 10, 2023 - By 

    Today I’m sharing about why Rob and I are leaving our church after 26 years of being faithful, active members.

Really last week didn’t have anything major that I’m remembering… Kayleigh just looked so cute on top of the stairs. I went with Rob to the Friday night baseball game. We ended up taking 2 out of 3 from #1 LSU!…
