Priscilla’s Christmas Recital

Priscilla had a big turnout and packed out the church!  Deborah played the prelude music on her harp.  It was great to get to know some of the students and their families better at the cookie social that followed.

Thank you for having my brother, Luke, speak at your church.  Everyone was so friendly to us, and we loved how vibrant and exciting the service was!

Luke Takes the Oath of Office!

Our family had the honor of being a part of Luke’s swearing in as a Laurens County councilman!  God is so good!


In Luke’s words:

Today, I took a solemn oath and was officially sworn into office. Having my family surround me was an incredible blessing! The moment was so surreal and made me realize how privileged and honored I am to have this opportunity to serve and represent the great people of Laurens County.

After some research and inquiry, we believe that at 23 years old, I am likely the youngest person to ever be elected to public office in Laurens County history. This achievement is not about me, but rather how the Lord has directed my steps this past year. He is the one to whom I give all the praise, glory, and honor!

As I serve my four-year term, I will always represent the PEOPLE. I will always strive to do what’s right, and not just what is socially attractive. I vow to defend the Constitution and preserve Liberty for this generation and the ones that will follow. God will be my guide, and Freedom will be my voice!

To our county, state, & nation – Let Freedom Ring!

Laurens Liberty Society–Prayer Vigil for America!

Today we gathered at the historic downtown Laurens Courthouse and prayed over our country and the controversial election.  What a great time of prayer with several pastors from our local community, and our very own state rep. Stewart Jones.  Thank you to the many people that came out to pray and show their support.
