Lighthouse Family Retreat is wonderful!
We got to be part of the Spring Break 2024
trip to Miramar Beach, Florida.
Along with the Hershey family and Taulbee family
we got to await the arrival of the Holmes family
and spend the week together.
Lighthouse gives families of children with
childhood cancer a break/vacation/moment to breath.
The kids got the condo prepped and ready for
the Holmes family….baked cookies and
set out their welcome gifts.
Cole and Maddox

He was outgoing and the life of the
party from the moment he arrived!

he was so good!!

On the last night of the retreat
(Friday, April 5th, 2024)
Faith and Cole got baptized in the Gulf of Mexico
at sunset!!! They both had already accepted Jesus
in their hearts…and they wanted to take the
next step of baptism and let the world know!
They were baptized by Paul Taylor Smith
(and Greg Walkup was by their side too)
So proud of Faith!
So proud of Cole!
Congratulations Faith and Cole!
That’s the most important
decision you’ll ever make!!
