God Works Long Distance

October 11, 2021

Africa (w/out the Trip) If you’ve been following our recent saga, you know we weren’t able to actually go to Africa as planned. So we can’t call this an Africa Ministry Trip. But Bill was still able to do the ministry part. He pre-recorded his main introductory two-hour session last Sunday, once his cough was […]

Good to be Negative

September 29, 2021

Here’s a very quick update (you’ll see why it’s quick in a minute.) We’re taking off on a ministry trip to AFRICA tomorrow! This is the first international trip we’ve taken since mid-2019 (Thanks to COVID). It’s Donna’s first trip AT ALL in about 2 years, and her first trip to Africa! We’re thankful to […]

A Matter of Life and Death

April 9, 2020

The Virus that Shook the World COVID-19. The whole world is talking about it. Everyone is concerned. Everyone’s routines and lives are being disrupted. People are dying. We pray that each of you is safe and healthy whether you are sheltering at home, or heading out to work or shop. The Morning that Changed Everything […]

Hearts

August 28, 2019

Our Heart for Asia In June, Bill was invited back to Asia and spent a week there, teaching some local missionaries with a local mission agency about how to better learn language and culture. This was a follow-up to our trip last year. This time, Bill was able to provide some training for 10 missionaries, […]

Here and There

March 13, 2019

Where’s the best place to learn culture and language? Answer: in a cultural community where that language is spoken. But not all communities (or teachers, or schools…) are equal. On our trip to Asia in September, we checked out a language school where our people might learn national language and culture. Bill was asked to […]

Say What?

September 11, 2017

Everyone Needs to Hear! We say this often. It’s our passion. This is what missions is all about: The unreached need to be reached with the Gospel. They need to hear the message of Christ.. and we believe they deserve to hear it in their heart language. What Does “Hear” Really Mean? If they misunderstand […]

Missionary Language Nerds, Unite!

May 27, 2016

Help! Missionaries who desire to reach an Unreached People Group face a daunting task. Not only must they live in an unfamiliar context and endure an extreme (read: hot!) climate, they must learn an unknown language and culture on their own. They need help. Who You Gonna Call? That’s where guys like Bill come in. […]

Then… and Now

May 6, 2016

THEN (1980s) AND NOW (2016) A LOT HAS CHANGED. (Well, besides the fact that we are a little bit older…) THEN: For 33 years, it was easy to explain our ministry: Bill and Donna? Oh yeah, PALAWAN. We lived and ministered on Palawan. We worked with the Palawanos (we were palawano.com, for goodness’ sake!) We were translating the Palawano New […]

Out of the Smoke

November 1, 2015

Bill is Back… …and pretty much over jet lag. Whew! Thanks to all who prayed for Bill during his recent Asia Pacific trip. The smoke in the region did not cause breathing problems for him. His plane back to the capital city was not delayed. The trip was a great success, and Bill made new friends and […]

Say What? When are you good enough?

July 6, 2015

The world is a big place. And Christ’s command to make disciples of all nations is a big task. We can easily feel overwhelmed by it. Can we do it? Yes! We have his command, and his promises. The church can move forward with confidence; undaunted, and full of hope. How can we do it? […]
