Meet Seth & Loral
We’ve been hiking together for eight years now. When we aren’t on the trail, Seth and Loral love being together. They are a second-chance couple, who were blessed to meet and marry in midlife. They knew they were meant to be together by their third date (on a hike), when they discovered that they both had served as divorce care leaders. Less than 100 days later, in September 2014, they were married. Today they are marriage mentors at their church and they keep their relationship strong with short walks and longer jaunts—with God at the center of their relationship.

Loral is an editor for this no-ad, tabletop keepsake magazine, which includes her column, “Write to Inspire.” The publication also includes original photography, inspirational fiction, poetry, journal prompts, practical life application articles, recipes, projects, gift ideas, plus featured women in small business.
