Married to the Ministry




I love Lisa over at The Preachers Wife. She is doing a Ministers wife (m2m) scavenger hunt of sorts, so if you are wondering why in the world I am talking about myself. That's why! The winner gets a prize!! And you know how competitive I am! I'll sell my own children for a cook book!


The Treasures

1.  First Name. Mariah


2.  State and Country of Residence. Texas (that pretty much covers both state and country!)
3.  Husband’s Ministry Title. A Rockin' Sr Pastor


4.  Length of time in Current Ministry Location. 2 1/2 months. Just moved from being outreach/student for 11 years.


5.  Children?  Future alpha male: age 11, Daughter: 7 going on 17, Daughter: 6 and glad to be the baby, doesn't want another sibling, but would love a puppy.


6.  Number of unique homes in which you’ve lived during your marriage. Three. One of which was student housing...I would call that unique on so many levels.


7.  Cook Sunday lunch or eat out? Oh girl! EAT. OUT. Then nap. That HAS to be part of the question!


8.  Typically on time for Sunday School or not? Early. 


9.  Favorite TV Show. Uh, shows. Lost, Fringe, and Ace of Cakes...and possibly House Hunters International


10.  Something you watch/like/do that you would never tell the church people. (Except now you just did…lol) WHAT! Lisa! Okay...I love all things Godfather. Be it I, II, or III. I own the Videos AND watch them every time they are on TV. There. "I know it was you Fredo. You broke my heart! You broke my heart!"


11.  Most annoying church-related pet peeve. When people cause dissention and call it being "spiritual"


12.  One thing you need to throw away but can’t bring yourself to do it. Old cassette tapes. I don't think I have a player! I would say old clothes but I KNOW they will be back in about 15 years and then I'll be retro!


13.  The one food you can not live without. My Trident gum (Citrus flavor). That counts, yes?


14.  Parsonage or have your own home? Own home. Actually two, because our house in MI hasn't sold yet:)


15.  Freak when the doorbell rings or always ready for a visitor? June Cleaver is ALWAYS ready for visitors! But Mariah ain't. I would be checking out the peep hole to see what's up;) jk. I do love having people in my house:)




I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you and can't wait to win the grand prize!!!! In all probability, I'll forget and be late to add my answers:)

Thanks for stopping by my page. I, too, am loving this! Hadn't thought about getting rid of my cassette tapes...they're out in the garage and I don't see them :)

This is so fun! You have a beautiful family! I love that gum is your food you can't live without. If gum was all I needed I might could lose the last of my baby weight!!!

I am definitely gonna have to catch up on Lost. I think I'm gonna wait until all of the seasons are on DVD, send my kids out of town for a weekend and plant myself on the couch!

Love ace of cakes !!! Where In Michigan were you ? We just moved from Michigan to Georgia ?

Cindi said...

Love Ace of Cakes...we don't have cable, so I watch it when I can!

Mary Beth said...

So where in MI did you live???

Melody said...

Hi...just found your blog through the Preacher's Wife. I was too late (story of my life!) on the game but what a great idea. I have enjoyed stalking all the other preacher's wives blogs....so fun! It seems like quite a few of us have recently moved or are about to. I'd like to stop back in and read some more of your life....is that creepy or just part of the blogosphere? Ha! I'm still somewhat new at this.
