    Please bless Rich & Gretchen with a life that is full of respect for one another and FOR YOU. Lots of lovin towards one another, and that they would cling to one another letting go of those humans they previously clung to as You join them, MAN & WIFE…a covenant. Praise You Father, Praise You. Amen.

    Gretchen! We welcome you as a SIESTA! Rich! She is a living doll!
    Oh Father, Your Word says:
    “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)
    Father, I pray this for Gretchen and Rich. You have declared it over them. May they rest in Your plans and prosper. May they know that Your plans are not for harm but to give them hope and a future. Lord, in a book that reveals so much Truth as Jeremiah, I thank You for this treasure hidden deep in the pages of this message. Go with them, bless them and watch over them. In Jesus Name. Amen.

    Congratulations, Rich and Gretchen!!! May you so sense God’s awesome presence at your wedding that you feel His smile on your faces.

    What better way to get a sneak preview of the joy and elation that awaits us in eternity than to spend the rest of your earthly lives together. May your wedding day be only the beginning of boundless joy as husband and wife!

    Oh, I will pray my heart out that your day surpasses your dreams. Love and blessings!!!!

    Wow! They are such a cute couple! Rich is soo used of God in this ministry! I pray that they would keep God as number ONE in their marriage!
    Col. 1:17 (AMP)And He Himself existed before all things, and in Him all things consist (cohere, are held together).
    He coheres and holds together even our marriages:) Because, He is good like that:) Praise His Name!:)

    I am just so excited and had to share it with somebody~ so even tho todays post was about an upcoming wedding; I had to let you know…. I am a pastor’s wife and we undertook a new postion recently that involved, church planting, well anyway to make a long story short- we launched yesterday~ we had 208 people at our very first service! Is it not incredible? I am still flying~ anyway, just wanted to share that, 208 people that may have heard about Jesus for the first time! May have seen church done in a new way for the first time! I am still amazed at what God is doing!

    I am a photographer for fun and I am always touched by the tenderness in the pictures Rich chooses to shoot. They have such depth and humanity. I know that is talent, but I also know that is proof of a good man. I pray they will be blessed with love forever.
    I LOVE more than most things, to see a good man and a good woman find love. We so rarely hear about it anymore and I’ll tell you what, it does something to the soul. We were meant as Christ’s followers to long for what is right and when we see it, do we not feel our hearts burn!

    God Bless you both

    Congratulations! Did he shoot his own engagement picture? I loved interacting with him in San Antonio, even if he did come up with the goofy “jazz hands” for our group! (Smile!) May God bless them both, he sure has blessed me with his video’s and pictures from all the LPL events! Thanks Rich for all you do to open our eyes to the lives of all the other women out there! You are a true Miesta!

    Enjoy every moment of the ceremony, and then your lives together. And apparently, great female brains think alike – who in the world is going to take his pics. And, of course, we would welcome seeing any that he would like to share. Because we’re women – and that’s what we do!

    I am with everyone else who has asked…who is going to take the photographs at this wedding since mr. photograper himself will be a little preoccupied!

    Oh I love this picture! The first thing that came to my mind was respect. The way his hands are in his pocket and he isn’t touching her but just looking at her. So precious!
