UPDATE ON HOW TO GIVE FOR LINI

UPDATE ON HOW TO GIVE FOR LINI

I Goofed… Some of you have mentioned having trouble with donating to Lini’s medical expenses. Apparently the scheme I described creates issues with IRS rules. I apologize.

Donna Broke Her wrist! Donna Broke Her Wrist! This is a quick update so you can be praying. The title of this blog comes from Ecclesiastes 3:3, which came up in Bill’s morning reading schedule the day after Donna’s accident, reminding us that God is in control, and that he does provide healing. Last Thursday, […]

Talk is not Cheap

Talk is not Cheap

Talking is Important. Missionaries need to talk… fluently! They have an important message to communicate. And it takes years of hard work to gain that fluency. That’s why Bill and his team are developing the updated Engage culture/language acquisition (CLA) how-to materials, and the Stages CLA app. We want to make the task easier by […]
