Rick pursued ministry by earning a degree at Grove City College while Elizabeth pursued math education at Allegheny College - one hour north. They visited each other almost every weekend, filling their time with Bananagrams, hikes, lacrosse games, ping-pong, and Ben & Jerry's ice cream. One of their favorite memories was a Halloween party they dressed as "Liz-terine and her Coolgate."

Despite only being an hour apart, Rick and Elizabeth detested the miles that separated them Monday through Friday. However, with each day, God affirmed their relationship more and more, proving that distance wouldn't get in the way of His plan.

As senior year came to a close, Rick and Elizabeth turned their senior papers in on the same day and later celebrated graduation together!
