“Kaylie was born in Indianapolis and lived in Indiana for ten years before moving to Florida with her family and then settling in Tennessee for her middle-college years. Josh was born and raised in Port Norris, New Jersey which is about 45 minutes east of Philadelphia and 45 minutes West of Atlantic City. In Fall of 2012, Josh and Kaylie both began attending Crown College in Tennessee. We know that God always works in mysterious ways and although we did not know each other very well we spent time together on a car ride with a friend for Thanksgiving break that fall and attended the choir’s New York City trip. We did not express interest in one another until spring 2013. We dated throughout college and were engaged on May 7th, 2016 and married on June 3rd, 2017. After marrying we moved to Florida so Kaylie could finish up her graduate studies and work as a graduate assistant at PCC, while Josh worked at Abeka. During college, Josh began having a burden for the Northeast and their need for the Gospel. In 2019 God opened an opportunity for us to serve alongside a young pastor at a church outside of NYC.

After serving the youth and ministering in multiple ways for five and a half years at Bible Baptist Church of Elmont, NY, we felt God’s calling us away from New York and the door opened up for us to move to Indiana, to serve alongside Pastor Bert here at Grace. While in New York, the Lord blessed us with three wonderful children Harper (4), Haddon (2), and Haven (1month old).”
