He is Risen!

What incredible news! Jesus’ resurrection means that we are saved. Victory is found in Him.

Death does not win.
Sin does not win.
Despair does not win.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him.
— John 3:16-17 (NASB)

At the Loper household, we are overjoyed to celebrate this season. Between prepping church outfits and looking forward to special services, we are soaking up the warmer weather and all things Spring!

It has been a while since we’ve sent an update to our friends and family, and we decided there was no better time than now to share what’s been happening in our world.

Lily

Last year, Lily made the decision to follow Jesus, a joy we never expected to witness at just three years old! Beyond her growing faith, she has mastered reading and jumped headfirst into math. Her gymnastics classes have given her the confidence to climb and jump off things (often faster than we’re ready for!), and she continues to love horseback riding, playing with her sister, and the excitement of staying in hotels.

Rosie

Over the past year, Rosie has truly come into her own. She is incredibly curious and can figure out how to use—or expertly deconstruct—almost anything you hand her. Her favorite thing to do is bring you a book and declare, “Thank you!” which means you are now obligated to read it as many times as she would like. A lover of song and dance, she often treats us to "late-night concerts" on her mini-trampoline to avoid bedtime. Rosie now knows her letters, sounds, and numbers up to 12, and she can identify almost any animal and its sound!

Rob & Bev

We’re still here, too! But we know who the real stars of the show are. Let’s get to the pictures and videos...
