I have been married now for 15 years, two boys age 9 and 11. The poll results do not reflect the national average..... the married never divorced category is now showing at 68%.

Hows that for a first post! It will all be downhill from there on....LOL.

Are you upset about the average ?

Or that we might be a witness that diversity and fellowship is possible despite our differences?

Or are we the den of iniquity???

Welcome Grace Seeker! We love newbies at AFF... especially NICE NEWBIES!


Now... What is this "national average" you refer to?

September 30th, 2007 marked our thirtieth anniversary.

Decided on our third date to get married. We were going to wait 2 years, then 1 year, then 6 months......

Ended up getting married 3 months after our first date.

My wife is wonderful. Always told me she didn't marry a preacher, and she sure didn't marry a pastor. LOL!
She has been a blessing to me in our ministry.

My husband and I have been married 48 1/2 yrs. Our six adult children are

all married to their original spouses, oldest child will be married 26 yrs in Feb.

2008, the next oldest will be married 19 yrs. in March, the next, 20 yrs., the

next 16 yrs., next 14 yrs., and the youngest 11 yrs. To God be the glory, for

without HIM we could do nothing!!


We are expecting our 20th grandchild in March. A boy. That will make us

15 grandsons. The oldest grandson, 24 1/2 yrs, is licensed with the UPC,

will be married 4 yrs. Jan 17th. The next oldest grandson will be 22 yrs. on

April 5th. He is fixing to get his license also. We also have 5 granddaughters,

ages 11, 10, 6, 3 and 2. All of our children are active in church.


Our middle daughter and her husband pastor the church my father and

mother founded in 1958, along with their 11 children. That will be 50 yrs. ago

Nov. 2008. Five of our six adult children and their spouses and children

still attend this church where they were raised. One son lives in another

city, approx. 15 miles from us and attends an Apostolic church there. God

has been SO good to our family. Our roots go very deep!


Today we attended our annual Family Christmas Party with ten of my siblings

and their families present as well as extended family. (We lost our first sibling,

a younger brother, age 55, in Sept. 07). He was sorely missed today but his

widow and daughter and 2 granddaughters were present. We had a great time

of delicious food, fellowship, sang carols, recalling family memories of years

gone by, etc. There was approximately 100 present, more or less!


Blessings,

Falla39
