Meet Your 

Joseph Nelson 

God works in amazing ways.  I prayed for years about the right partner and Sarah and I moved into the same apartment complex on the same day.  We met by the pool and dared each other to jump in fully clothed but ended up jumping in together holding hands.  We ate Maple Street that morning because family I had told about it insisted that we go as we’d never been.  We spoke on the way to Greenville about how much we’d love to have something of our own and how to best leverage our passion for people and God given talents to help our community.  Just as God answered prayers and put us together I know he led us to Maple Street.  Even though we initially reached out about Pensacola the decision to pursue the opportunity for Miramar Beach felt like it was fate. A few days after sending that email to Michael I had my mother permanently relocate to the Destin area.  Our year has been a year of answered prayers and new adventures.  And as Sarah and I christened in the new year with a decision to join our lives and become a family together, we were extremely blessed a few months later to join the family at Maple Street.Work with this what you can but if you ever want to read the unabridged version of the story, I’ll be happy to type all of it up and send it over.

Grace,

Joe
