May we introduce you to our new hometown: Torre Pellice, in NW Italy.
The above picture was taken a couple weeks ago after over 4 feet of snow blanketed our sleepy Italian town. It has since melted and we’re enjoying milder weather for now.
We enjoy standing at our balcony windows, looking over this place God has led us to. It reminds us that He loves each person who resides in the little houses scattered around. Now it’s about time we gave you a little tour of our town!

Thanks for posting these. It’s great to see where you two live! Jon I’m sure you’re like a kid in a candy store at the weekly market. Artisan Cheese, Pastry, local veggies and meat, must be rough. You two are in our prayers.
Hey thanks for showing us around in Italy! The snow gave me chills. God is with you by your side. God bless you, always.
