A Chat With Our Client

MARK ABBOTT FROM ACCESS INC.

Q. How did you become a client with Financial Architects? A. I became a client of Financial Architects through an introduction by Ken Grace. I knew Ken through church and also a men’s bible study he and I both attended. I was looking for someone to help me with some financial planning, so I asked Ken if his firm would be a good fit. I respected Ken and knew he would help if he could. He spent

some time with me qualifying my financial goals, and then connected me with an advisor he felt would be able to help. He was right. Financial Architects has helped me over the last few years with some needed financial planning, and I’m grateful for it.

DIRECTIONS

A. Twenty years ago, a close friend and I started a men’s floor hockey group at our church on Tuesday evenings. We had been driving down to a school in Redford every Tuesday night to play floor hockey with a group of his old college buddies. The games were rough, and the guys were quite physical. We liked playing the game but wanted a different kind of venue. We decided to start one at our church and invite guys to join in. The format for the evening was simple: an opening prayer, 1 1/2 hours of hockey, a short devotion at the end, and a closing prayer. We set up a rink in the gym and played high-energy Christian rock music over the sound system. Anyone could attend, and we used it as an informal outreach to guys in the church as well as outside the church. It worked. In the last 20 years, well over 200 guys have participated in and been impacted by the group. We’ve changed lives, made lasting friendships, strengthened faith, and played some great hockey: all good for the soul.

1. Heat oven to 425 F, and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. 2. Salt each fillet with 1/2 tsp salt. Bake for 6–8 minutes. 3. In a saucepan, combine ghee and garlic and cook over medium heat for 3 minutes. 4. Add rosemary, zest, and juice. Cook for another 3 minutes. 5. Stir in tapioca starch until lumps disappear and mixture thickens. 6. Plate salmon and top with orange sauce.
