Gappers go to Ann Arbor

So, I’m kinda just playing catch-up at this point. These are from the Gappers’ first monthly trip to Ann Arbor waaaaaaaay back in September.

Ryan stopped suddenly and screamed because he thought this dog was driving the truck:

GAPPERS

I’m living with 5 other guys at 4229 Commonwealth this year: The Servants of the Word: Ed Conlin, Dave O’Conner, Mark Whitters (from here on out referred to collectively as “The Brothers”); and my two GAP bros, Ryan Corr and Matt Hagen. Ryan is from west Belfast and just turned 21 a few weeks ago and Hagen-Daas is from St. Paul, Minnesota and is fresh out of high school.

It’s been a huge blessing living with all of these guys. The Brothers are amazing men of prayer and service and Matt, Ryan and I are basically the three best friends anyone could have (Click here for Clarification).

These Pictures are from waaaay back in September when Matt, Ryan and I were still getting acquainted:
