The Plumas Lake, Calif. couple, who've served together in ministry at churches throughout the West for decades, first met in middle school.

"One day, I met someone at a convention and ended up falling for a man almost 20 years my senior," Dykstra wrote. "It wasn't the first time I'd found myself in a relationship with an older man; I've always joked about my daddy issues, and thought that with age came stability and wisdom. Welp."
