Allison

Today, I conclude introducing you to the Aroma Team by having you get to know Allison Taylor.
Allison is someone I have known for around 2 years or so, but someone I really feel I have gotten to know more over the past year. Allison's husband, Junior, has been someone especially dear to my husband, Jeff. Without a doubt, it has been Junior whom God has used to encourage Jeff when he needed it the most. Most times that encouragement came because God told him to do it, and that is what made it all the more special - just knowing that God inspired it.
When we met Allison, it was because Junior told us that he had found someone special and had begun dating. Being the private guy he is, when he actually wanted us to meet this special someone, we figured it had to be a big deal. We went on a double date with Junior and Allison to PF Changs, which I can now thank them for putting that restaurant up at the top of my favorites list. We had a wonderful time getting to know Allison more and seeing firsthand why Junior thought so much of her. Jeff and I had the honor of later attending their wedding ceremony and sharing in that special day with them. It has been a joy to watch these two families come together and put God first, then each other, and then the children. They truly love one another, and out of that pours a love for those God puts in their lives.
Over this past year, I have watched Allison pour herself into others. You may not always know exactly what Allison is up to, but many times it's because of Allison that special things may randomly come into your life. Oftentimes, it is Allison that initiates a special surprise for someone, just because she has seen that person needs a special touch in their life. Anytime you need to bless someone with a meal, Allison is always more than willing to help. And more times than not, it is Allison who brings that one in need that we might not notice, to our attention. She has an unbelievable gift of mercy.
It's been a joy to have Allison on the Aroma Team. She is our newest member, and she has come in full steam ahead. Her hands were all over Ladies' Retreat, but my guess is that many of you never knew just what exactly is was she organized, because she is just one of those people that is behind the scenes, handing out the special touches, making things shine. Right now, Allison is in prayer about an exciting new ministry, and I can't wait for the day that we can share that with you. For now, though, look for Allison to be a busy bee. She will be the one that goes that extra mile to serve you.
Allison is the wife of Junior, mother of Adam and Jackson and special Allison to Jared, Nathan, and Summer. She is a good friend, faithful servant and lover of her Lord!
