PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Timothy and Kathy Keller grew up at opposite ends of Pennsylvania, but met in the middle through Kathy's sister, who was studying at Bucknell University along with Tim. They dimly heard of each other's doings as leaders of their respective Christian fellowship groups, but it wasn't until they both attended Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary that they grew to be friends, then soul mates; they got married at the beginning of their final semester. Tim's first church was West Hopewell Presbyterian Church, in Virginia, where their three sons were born. After nine years in Hopewell, a degree at Westminster Theological Seminary and a stint as associate professor of preaching there, the Kellers moved to Manhattan in 1989 to start Redeemer Presbyterian Church.
