Smiths celebrate 50 years of matrimony

Kristin and John Smith today.

ALTAMONT — John and Kristin Smith celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary Sept. 3, 2016.  On Aug. 27, they had a wonderful celebration with family and friends at Northway Bible Chapel, including many friends from Bellevue Gospel Chapel.

“First, they give thanks to their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for His great salvation, love, faithfulness, and help every day,” wrote their son Eric Smith in an anniversary announcement. “They would also like to thank their family, friends, and community, especially those who have prayed to God for them over the years.  Kristin's favorite verse from the Bible is: ‘Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4, NKJV).’”
