In Tune With HIM …

Recently in my evangelism girls prayer group I shared a devotional about how God as the Creator desires for us to be in tune with HIM and HIS plan. Although we each may play a different instrument in the symphony, we need to play the part that HE intended for us to play. In order […]

Escape Room …

Our seniors this semester have been raising funds for the translation, revision and printing of the Guahibo bible in Colombia, South America. One of the fund-raisers was an Escape Room. Our group was awesome.  It was neat seeing how we worked as a team in following the clues to formulate a plan of escape but […]

Jared and I have officially entered the season of Autumn.  This past weekend, we, along with our dorm kids, went to an apple orchard and marketplace.  It was fun looking at all the fresh fruits and vegetables, and eating apple cider donuts! We also enjoyed walking through the orchard and  taste-testing all the apples.  We […]

Jared and I are beginning our 10th year here at the BI in Waukesha. It’s hard to imagine … but it is true! Pray for us – that we would be generous in our service, that we would be transparent, that we would be hospitable, loving, and caring; that we would live our lives in […]

With Open Hands …

Once again we have graduated another class here at the BI in Waukesha. It has been “good” to walk with these students during this short time in their journey; and although this time can be bittersweet, we say good-bye with “open hands”.  Please pray for them as they continue seeking HIM in all things.

This trip allows students to experience life in a tribal church planting setting. They attend one week of classes and are involved in activities that show them what life might be like living in a culture […]

For the Spring competition event there is soccer, ultimate frisbee, basketball, and volleyball. Although the school population doubles at that time, and it takes a while to get through the meal line, it […]

Behind the Scenes …

We so appreciate our maintenance team.  They put in long hours and sometimes work 24/7 in order to keep roads, driveways, parking lots, and sidewalks plowed and cleared around the school. They also salt those hidden icy places and check the boilers several times a day in order to keep us all warm.  They are […]
