Greetings from the Jeschke clan! We send our warmest wishes for a joyous
Christmas season and a blessed New Year. This past year, we celebrated two big
anniversaries: our graduation from UVA at our 40th reunion in June
where we enjoyed reconnecting with “old” friends and Melanie’s Christian
housemates from “Shamrock Rd,” and the 20th anniversary of the
founding of The King’s Chapel (TKC) in
September. We are so blessed to serve such a wonderful church family and to
have all our children involved in ministry. On August 8th, we welcomed
a precious new granddaughter into the family: Molly Elizabeth to Mark &
Beth. After living with us for nearly 2
½ years, my parents Earl & Betty Morey have moved to a lovely assisted-
living facility close to the church. My mom’s Alzheimer’s has sadly progressed
while my dad, who has congestive heart failure, has finally been approved for
an artificial heart-valve replacement the end of January, before his 91st
birthday. Despite his health struggles, he still manages to give excellent
Bible teachings most Sundays at TKC. In November, shortly after my parents’
move, I received an unexpected call to teach 11th grade English
fulltime at Trinity Christian School. Going “back to school,” while continuing
to teach my classes at Northern VA Community College, has been quite a
challenge! Meanwhile, I’m pleased to say that all of The Oxford Chronicles (Inklings, Intentions,
Expectations, & Evasions) have now been released in a revised
e-book format, thanks to Helping Hand Press.We are grateful for our times together with family and friends. May the
Prince of Peace, Jesus the Christ, our Savior and Lord, be born anew in our
hearts today. Merry Christmas! God bless us, every one!
Many blessings,
Melanie M. Jeschke
