Graduation

After 4 years Joshua has officially graduate from Concordia Seminary St. Louis. There were two ceremonies. The first ceremony was a presentation of Joshua's theological diploma. It took place in the morning at the Seminary chapel.

Team Ketelsen will be on the go this summer. We will be visiting our new home the first weekend in June. A trip to Salem, IL the second weekend. Then a trip to Disneyworld with Stefani's parents to celebrate 1 year of marriage. July will bring ordination and our final days in St. Louis. We hope that through out our traveling and packing we can keep up to date and post pictures of our adventures.

We would like to thank everyone for their support and prayers.

God's Blessings,
The Reverend Joshua and Stefani
