Message from Jen:

This isn’t goodbye but a see you later! It has been such an honor and blessing joining you all on your faith journeys.

As I finish my last day at OLQA as the youth minister, I’m reminded of all the wonderful families I have met. I am so grateful for all of you! OLQA has been and will always be my home.

I hope to see you all around soon. I will keep you all in my prayers. Thank you for everything and for showing me how alive Christ is in each and everyone one of you.

Many blessings, Jen 💕
