CURRENT MISSION Road less traveled ABOUT ME We are a couple who love to do things differently. Always up for a good time, a long chat, and meeting new people. We want our door to swing open often. We love to bike around town, garden, play with the dog, sit for hours reading a book, camp, cook, hike. These days most of our time is spent hanging out with our almost 1 year old and almost 3 year old little girls. Jason works full time and Kalene runs a photography business and is in graduate school. PHILOSOPHY We are only asked to love, to offer hope to the many hopeless. We don't get to choose all the endings, but we are asked to play the rescuers. We won't solve all mysteries and our hearts will certainly break in such a vulnerable life, but it is the best way. We were made to be lovers bold in broken places, pouring ourselves out again and again until we're called home.
