• Additional note from Sam:  We have served on multiple occasions in rural communities and feel that is not only what we enjoy the most, but also what God has gifted us for.  My wife and I both grew up in Ohio but have had a draw in both of our hearts to move further west than where we have lived thus far in life.  This has narrowed our search of pastoral positions to specific types of areas that we are reaching out to in order to see where God might be calling us
