Finding a New Home
DAVE & CATHI TAGUE
Having raised our family in warm, sunny Mission Viejo, California, we never imagined leaving the place we called home for over 40 years. Our church there had been our family— where we grew in faith, served in ministry, and built lifelong friendships. But about eight years ago, God began stirring our hearts, calling us to Washington to be near our three daughters, their husbands, and our sixteen grandchildren.
Leaving was bittersweet. Starting over—finding a new church, new friends, and a new rhythm of life—wasn’t something we expected to do in this season. Yet, as He always does, God had something beautiful in store.
Attending LC3 was a natural step since our oldest daughter, Abby, and her husband, Peter, and their nine children were already part of this loving church family. From our very first Sunday, we sensed the presence of God’s Spirit and the warmth of His people. We quickly joined a Community Group and have found deep friendship and genuine fellowship—people who feel like family.
Dave now serves with Food Bank pickup and on the security team, while Cathi helps in the preschool ministry and runs the AWANA store. Together we are continually blessed by the heartfelt worship and the solid, Bible-centered teaching from Pastor Tung and the pastoral team.
We’ve learned firsthand that the Church truly is God’s gift—where His people gather to worship, grow, pray, and serve together. We’re deeply grateful to live near our children and grandchildren and to have found a new home here at LC3—a place where God’s love feels like family.
