Next up on our list of “see you laters” is the Ruby family! Nik served as our team director for FOCUS this past year, and the Rubys have been on our FOCUS team for three years. We’ve gotten to watch their family grow! They are headed to the University of Kentucky next year, and our loss is UK’s gain. Nik, Alex, Siena and Claire, we are so grateful for your time here and we will miss you terribly! Please join me in praying for them on their journey, and stay tuned for updates to our FOCUS team for next year.
