Who was this all for:

Kristin and Jon

From June 1999 until summer 2004 Trevor was the youth pastor at a small Mennonite Church in Calgary. Kristin was one of our faithful youth group members (one of our "kids") and contributed to some awesome memories from our time there. She also happens to be Trevor's second cousin. Getting to know her revealed a wonderful, sweet, loyal, God-loving woman with a fantastic singing voice. I am so happy for her and pray God's richest blessings on her life with Jon!
