Katie Returns to Church after the Birth of her Daughter, Zoe - 05/31/15

It was with great joy that Katie returned to church after the birth of her & Zak's daughter, Zoe.   Zoe was born on April 18, 2015.   The family felt it was a special blessing for Zoe & Katie to have their Churching on the Feast of Pentecost.   All were happy to meet Baby Zoe, and to have Katie with them at church once more.
