We also went to Raleigh to visit with Jeffrey and Jennifer. Aaron grew up with these friends in the youth group in Nash County. They live in Apex now and are great hosts! It was so relaxing to stay with them in their beautiful home. Aaron was invited to sing at their church on Sunday morning for Pastor Appreciation Sunday. The pastor, Jeff, was Aaron's youth pastor and they were very close. He has started a new church in the last 2 years in Holly Springs, Destiny Life Church. It was a complete surprise for Jeff that Aaron sang on Sunday morning. We enjoyed the service and catching up with him and his wife Tonya afterwards. Jeffrey and Jennifer. Jennifer led the worship band in a practice on Saturday morning and then they grilled and served lunch for us. That night they took us out to eat in Cary, and of course we went to Marble Slab for ice cream!

Jeff and Tonya. Aaron really admires this man of God.
