Over the break, we got to see Shannon and Jessica Nielsen a few times. Shannon was Aaron’s roommate in college, and Jess was Jen’s. They are now married and living in Dallas while Shannon attends Dallas Theological Seminary . They were home in Michigan for a couple weeks.
Shannon and Jess got married in December of 2000, just a few months after Jen and I. They are now expecting their first child as well. Jess is due about 10 days before Jen is. It was fun for the girls to get to see each other and talk about their pregnancy experiences so far.
Shannon is hoping to finish up with his program at DTS this summer. They may then pursue an internship with a church in Arkansas. They are very interested in church planting. Their long-term goal is to start a new church in Ann Arbor, Michigan that would focus on using the arts to communicate the Truth of the Bible to the community and the students at U of M.
By the time we get to see them again, we should both have our babies. Here’s a picture of Shannon and Jess.
And a picture of the pregnant girls together…
