I couldn’t recount their entire love story to you, but suffice it to say, that Joel and Selena started this wild ride together at Iowa State. Now, five children later, Joel is continuing in the position for which he was made-youth ministry-getting students pumped up about Jesus. Selena continues in her supportive role working behind the scenes, holding down the fort (as I call it). I asked tentatively from behind the camera if they were OK with showin’ each other a little love and this is what happened…You know you have a good youth pastor on your hands when they’re silly.
Now to their adorable, wonderful children! We’ll start with Bethany.
But she’s also very good with smiles when her siblings are egging her on behind me!
Now the challenge-getting them all together and looking at me at the same time. Ready. Set. Go!
One for Joel’s desk at the church: all his ladies…
Joel and Selena-thank you so much for allowing me a glimpse into your family. You have an absolutely beautiful bunch and I know you go with God’s blessings. Keep doing what you’re doing both in ministry and in your home-well done good and faithful servants!!
Blessings,
Carrie
