Teamwork

Teamwork

“When life give you lemons, make lemonade!” Familiar words… ones which a new daily reality gives us fresh opportunity to apply in walking with the Lord. Uncertainty and doubt are a natural response to major upheavals in life’s expectations… but in what context do we choose to place them? For the believer in Jesus, our […]

Drywall & Isolation

Drywall & Isolation

In early March, some of our coworkers came out to help with drywall in our house. Their arrival encouraged us greatly, particularly after the challenges we had faced putting a team together! Our original plan for February had already fallen through – some potential workers were simply unavailable, and unexpected complications forced the others to […]

One Day at a Time

One Day at a Time

Greetings from the mountains! Life continues on one day at a time for our family, as we continue to adjust to life in Las Moras. Being out here has given us a sense of continuity and stability we had long missed, living without a permanent home for over a year and a half! Amy’s recovery […]

Powering Up!

Powering Up!

Life and ministry among the Nahuatl has really kept our team and family busy in this new year! Mid-December, we asked for prayer regarding importing our house’s solar equipment – then shared the story of how God’s provided in that situation. Once everything arrived in Mexico, UIM pilots John Van Wormer and Clif Huntting collaborated […]

A few days ago, we sent out a request for Urgent Prayer. In short: our solar equipment was being held up at the border in a growing pile of red tape, and that with our solar team already having purchased their flight tickets for later this month! What’s more, one missionary friend who had volunteered […]

Urgent Prayer: Solar Importation

Hey all! Mini-update to share with you the need for prayer in a current situation. We recently shared how God provided the need for solar equipment funding in near-miraculous fashion. The order was made, and equipment delivery has been on schedule for a team of workers arriving at the turn of the year. When trying […]

We Made It!

We Made It!

Editor’s Note: we had this blog ready to publish at midday on Thanksgiving, but our internet connection went down for 24 hours. Just one more adjustment in the mountain missionary lifestyle! On Friday November 15th, our family sleepily crawled into a fully loaded pickup truck and put Mazatlán in the rearview mirror. We drove two […]

Making A Move

Making A Move

From Mazatlán to Las Moras When last we wrote, the exciting news we had to share (about Nahuatl baptisms!) was penned from Spokane, WA. Since that time, we’ve been on the move! Our road has led from Spokane to Kansas City, to El Paso and the familiarity of Chihuahua City, and now we find ourselves […]

Facing Fear

Facing Fear

Concerning Baptism The concept of water baptism is not a natural fit within Nahuatl culture. Rainy season flooding can transform oft-placid (or dry!) creeks into treacherous, surging rivers – making crossings dangerous. Rumors circulate of large and malevolent snakes, said to live below the water’s surface. Furthermore, animistic fears come into play as well – […]
