Dear friends and family, Ali s and my wedding was almost seven months ago and life has been quite the whirlwind for us since then! The day after our wedding, we flew to Destin, FL for our honeymoon.

8 Dear friends and family, Ali s and my wedding was almost seven months ago and life has been quite the whirlwind for us since then! The day after our wedding, we flew to Destin, FL for our honeymoon. A week later, we were flying into Raleigh/Durham airport as we moved to Kinston, NC to report to my assignment to teach elementary school in Eastern North Carolina through Teach for America -... an organization that places recent college graduates in low-income school systems throughout the country. We spent the summer of 2016 learning what it was like to live in an underserved area as I taught kindergarten to lowincome students in an elementary school that served the majority of project housing in Kinston, NC. After two months of living in Kinston during my teacher-training period, we eventually moved to Greenville, NC where I was placed in a low-income, low-performance elementary school to teach 5 th grade. Five months into the school year, we have experienced the challenges that come with teaching, balancing work and life, and beginning a marriage while being so far away from family and friends. At the same time, we have also experienced the joy of receiving unexpected blessings, praying together as a couple, reconciling with one another, and at times laughing at ourselves as we learn to maneuver through this crazy adventure! We are growing in Christ and in our marriage every day as we journey through this season in our lives. We miss our friends and family greatly, but we are so grateful for the ways God has provided for us here in North Carolina. Please keep us in your prayers and we look forward to the next time we can visit with you all! In Christ, Lukas & Ali Gengarella Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. (Genesis 2:24) 8
