  • We had the pleasure of fishing on the McKenzie River with our very own Dr. Pete Diffenderfer and it was not a disappointment! He pulled in tons of rainbow trout, told us about his biggest catch ever, and dropped some gems about how being in nature helps us to connect with God and His creation. Tune in to see if we managed to catch a 25lb steelhead!

  • Eugene is known for it’s fantastic coffee and one of our favorite places to go is Palace! From delicious pastries that are made in house to freshly brewed coffee; they really have it all. Join Rosangela and Mikiah as they make their first stop on a coffee crawl around Eugene!
