Dear Friends and Family,
Merry Christmas to you! A blanket of 7 inches of snow atop an inch of ice provided some “beside-the-fire” time to write a little West Family letter this year. A quick update from our bunch:
Hannah (22) is a senior, graduating from the U of A in May 2014 with an Apparel Studies degree. If you need an apparel buyer or a great stylist, she will soon be ready for the work world. She and her Nana have been busy sewing to prepare a line of Hannah’s designs entered in the NWA Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, March 2014. Hannah also celebrated two years working at the Mustache Goods and Wares boutique on the Fayetteville Square!
Logan (18) is a college freshman, living on campus in a brand new dorm, (enjoying an unlimited meal plan) studying Chemical Engineering and working in Alzheimer’s research at the University of Arkansas. His passion continues to be all things music (especially percussion), performance, composition and production. Logan was also a great intern at Field Agent this summer!
Sarah (13) is an 8th grader who spends a lot of Friday nights watching Shark Tank with her dad. We wouldn’t be surprised to see her on the show one day! She is most excited about an upcoming 2014 Spring Break trip to Guatemala. Sarah has also learned to play guitar this year, adding to piano. She is eager to play in worship soon.
Kim and Rick (101) merged their business focus this year with Field Agent acquiring CORE4 Research. Now, one company, Field Agent is a lot easier to run than three! Kim is entering her 5th year of prison ministry with Ladies of Grace, and is greatly encouraged by the women with whom she works. Rick is coaching and guiding young men and serving as an elder at the Church @ Arkansas.
As we close, here’s something to consider…it is no mistake that these two words, SILENT and LISTEN have the exact, same letters. It is our prayer for you this season that you have at least one “SILENT” night to “LISTEN” to His still, small but powerful voice.
Merry Christmas from the West Family!
Love,
Rick, Kim, Hannah, Logan and Sarah
