My Personal Testimony by Karl Owen
I am Barbara's husband & co-owner of Barbara's Cake & Cookie Boutique. I am a Texas A&M graduate (Class of 80). More importantly, I am born again & I re- dedicated my life to The Lord Jesus in August, 1983, at my grandparent's house in Maine.
Give God Glory for that & no one or nothing else!
