About Us
We are a family of 5, this "About Us" page will give you a general picture of how we came to this point in our lives.
I was a V.P. of Trading and Operations Management at an options trading firm for the past 13yrs (impressive? NO not really). As you all know the economy has not been kind to most of the American population. Somewhere around 2007/08 salary and bonuses began to decrease while debt and expenses increased. We slowly felt the strain and began to fall behind on our bills, primarily the mortgage. Then in early 2013 I was told our companies trading desk would be dissolved and I, along with my co-workers, would have to find new jobs. This is when my wife and I decided it was no longer feasable for us to try and save the home we put so much time, energy, blood sweat and tears into. We would join the millions of people in America discussing that terrible word "Foreclosure".
A bit of back story. We are Christians first and foremost our focus is God and Him first. We believe He is with us and will never leave us, and we believe we are here for a purpose, "His Purpose". As I said earlier I'd been with that particular firm for 13 years, and in finance for over 20 years, in that time I managed to climb the proverbial corporate ladder, I was successful and was doing considerably well for someone who didn't finish college. In all that time I felt there needed to be something more. I "Had it all" but Had Nothing. In 1998 we decided to move to New Jersey which was the year we found God. From that moment on we felt a desire for something more, but like many Christians we were too scared and to wrapped up in "Life" to do anything about it.
Now we feel God has opened all the doors wide to allow us to do what we feel in our hearts He has purposed for us all these years.
