WE'RE MOVING!

The Pontier family is happy to announce our Family’s addition to the Great Lakes State next week! This makes us very happy.


Next week Saturday we’ll be arriving back in “the promised land” of Western Michigan... And if you think we are excited about it... You should talk to my sons’ grandparents!

Today I officially accepted a position as the director of student ministry at Fair Haven Ministries in Jenison, MI. I’m very excited about the team of people I’ll be working with and the potential for this ministry!

We could not be more thankful for the ways in which God has gone so far ahead of us in this process... Long before we ever knew this would happen He was laying groundwork!

Our departure here has been very encouraging and full of blessing and we’ve been able to see some of the positive effects of our time here on this community – which is more than I expected for being here such a short time. My official end date is July 31 but I’ll effectively be without responsibilities after next Wednesday. My official start date is Aug. 1 at FHM so even little details like gaps in health insurance seem to have been taken care of!

We’re excited to move back to the great white north and to escape Buckeye country with our lives, though barely!

We’ll be staying at our grandparents house (as it’s empty for the time being) for now until we can set up some more permanent housing that fits our needs so we aren't done with the moving just yet.

Hope to see you soon!
