After graduation, John returned home to Atlanta to enter the ministry as the Assistant Pastor of Rehoboth Church.  Then in 1986, he was asked to join the faculty of Oak Hills Christian College in Bemidji, Minnesota, as an instructor and librarian. There, he taught courses in Christian Education, Evangelism, and  Discipleship,  while expanding the library to meet collegiate accredidation standards.  There also, their two children Megan and Forrester were born.  In 1997, the growing family moved to the suburbs of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where John became the Pastor for Center United Presbyterian Church.  And in 2007 they relocated here to Bedford Presbyterian Church.  Betty is a Registered Nurse working at Bedford Hospital.  Megan found a wonderful husband, Mike Lawrence, and they are currently living & working in the Bedford area.  Forrester is now serving in the United States Army.
