On April 4, just one month from today my first born son is getting married. He has been in a courtship relationship for over two years now. We have known Natalie’s parents since before either Zack or Natalie were born. Their’s is one of those homeschool courtship success stories.
I have been blessed to be actively involved in my son’s life. I will never forget the day he was born. I barely got Chris to the hospital in time. Just 20 minutes after we arrived Zack was born. I can still remember the feeling of holding him in my arms for the first time.
I also remember holding him in my arms again the day I had the privilege of baptizing him. The joy I felt as I lifted him up out of the water was second only to the joy I felt on the day he was born.
And now, on April 4th, I will be part of yet another milestone in Zack’s life. I will be the pastor who performs his marriage ceremony. I thank God for allowing me to be actively involved in my son’s birth, rebirth, and the birth of his marriage.
Zack and I have done a lot together as father and son. We enjoyed many summers at Angeles Crest Christian Camp’s Father-Son retreats. We worked together on the production of The Pastor’s House and Father Child Projects DVDs. In 2007 I encouraged him in his first solo production, the Courtship Formula, a documentary about courtship that was an official selection for the 2007 WYSIWYG Christian Film Festival. It has been such a pleasure seeing this young man grow in maturity and in his walk with the Lord.
We’d love for you to share in this celebration of Zack and Natalie’s wedding with us. We can’t invite the whole world to the wedding so we’ve decided to do the next best thing. We are having a giant celebration sale of the three videos Zack and I have produced. Help us help him celebrate this special event in his life by generation some financial resources for his wedding. Check out the details at www.FamilyGravity.com.
Thank you for your continued prayers for Zack and Natalie as they start their new life together on April 4th.
Serving Christ and His Family,
Pastor Ken
