Zach and Sarah's courtship update!

 Since June of 2011, Zach and Sarah started their courtship and learn about Jesus and follow and trust him to give them their partners for life.

After a few months of courting, Sarah decided that this courtship was not meant to end up in marriage. Zach and Sarah have decided to remain to be friends. The three main goals of their courtship were 1 to maintain purity. 2. to discover if they were right life partners for their walk in marriage. 3. to honor God first and foremost in their relationship.

Our prayer is that Zach and Sarah will find the right partner for their life.

One month until the show

The show "United Bates of America" is starting on August 13th! They have eight epsiodes and it's unknown for right now if they are going to do season two. I am sure that if the bates find it's educational and they keep to their values as a family then they will be back!
