Rob & Jeane: ENGAGED!

Whoo hoo!  About 9 days ago, some of Colton and I's very favorite people got engaged!  Rob flew to Salerno and proposed to Jeane Carroll!  I wish I could have been there so bad.




Jeannie was a Chi O but is two years older than me.  I knew her then but really got to know her on Crusade summer project in Salerno, Italy.  Colton and I started officially dating on that trip and we both got to know Jeane really well.  Rob was also on that trip and that's where they became really good friends.





The Lord called Jeane Carroll to go back to Italy this year on a STINT with Crusade.  She left in September and gets back on July 11th.  I am SO proud of her.  Romans 10:15-And how are they to preach unless they are sent?  As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!"  What an incredible picture of the call to missions. Fast forward to now-we are both engaged, getting married close together, and all really good friends.  Rob is a groomsman in our wedding and I cannot wait till Jeane gets home.  I just adore her and can talk to her about anything.  I wish so bad she was here right now but know she is exactly where she needs to be; sharing the gospel with Italians and allowing the Lord to teach through her. 

Jeane is just one of those special people.  No matter how long it has been, we can always just pick up right where we left off.  She is so honest, down to earth, and real.  She's just hilarious too, I never stop laughing when I am with her.  I have watched the gospel radically change her life and she is such a sweet picture of Jesus.  Rob & Jeane get the meaning of marriage.  Colton & I love spending time with them because it is so edifying.  They bring us up and encourage us biblically.  I trust them and I see Christ when I look at their relationship.  Cannot wait for you to get home and am SO THRILLED to see the gospel in you & Rob's relationship.  We love y'all!  Miss you Jeaniiee!!
