Count Your Many Blessings

Count Your Many Blessings

February 27, 2017

This collage tells a story that tweaks at our heartstrings as we remember the journey we have traveled over the past year.  The picture in the top right was taken in March 2016 during our aviation training in Arizona.  I (Carol) was four weeks pregnant, and we had just been told by our leadership at NTMA that […]

Toilet Paper and Traffic Patterns

Toilet Paper and Traffic Patterns

November 2, 2016

It’s been almost three months now.  Looking back, it’s hard to remember the first few weeks and our general state of overwhelm with a new culture, new surroundings, and new language.  Not that it’s over–not by a long shot!  But we’re getting more comfortable and beginning to figure out the flow of life in this segment […]

New Home, New Eyes

New Home, New Eyes

September 8, 2016

Yesterday marked exactly one month since we arrived in Asia Pacific.  In that time, our vision has expanded significantly. During the first few days, we could only grasp information about three feet in front of us.  We noticed things like shiny tile floors, dirty gutters, and flags decorating every street (we arrived around Independence Day). […]

Have You Ever Memorized a Tracking Number?

Have You Ever Memorized a Tracking Number?

July 26, 2016

A typical USPS tracking number contains 22 numbers.  I now have a string of those numbers permanently lodged in my memory, since we chose to purchase airline tickets to Asia-Pacific before receiving our passports and visas back in the mail from the embassy.  Call it the newbie jitters, but we were on the edge of our seats for […]

New Territory (And Why We’re Not Excited)

New Territory (And Why We’re Not Excited)

July 7, 2016

As we near our departure date for Asia-Pacific, we are often asked, “Are you excited to move overseas?”  We usually answer, “Yeah, we’re really looking forward to it!  Can’t wait!” Truth be told, we’re not. We’ve both experienced our fair share of excitement over trips in the past.  I remember high school missions trips and […]

Blood, Sweat, and Suitcases

Blood, Sweat, and Suitcases

June 13, 2016

It’s that time of year for us again…moving.  Seems like a monumental task that happens at least twice a year in our lives.  Sometimes we wonder why we even bother unpacking.  Hanging pictures on the wall feels as futile as trying to turn a hotel room into a home for a few days.  Living this way reminds […]

Geronimo!

Geronimo!

March 25, 2016

Remember the old Disney movie The Rescuers: Down Under?  There’s a part where the albatross, Wilbur, launches off a high-rise as he takes flight with the two mouse delegates.  During the final stage of Jared’s flight training at NTM Aviation, he had to take off and land on a 900-ft. airstrip (small aircraft typically land on strips from […]

A Video Is Worth a Million Words

A Video Is Worth a Million Words

December 14, 2015

If a picture is worth a thousand words, a three-and-a-half-minute video has to be worth about a million.  Click on the picture below to get a quick visual update on the Kresge family in Arizona. Merry Christmas, everyone!  Our prayer this season is that the love and servanthood of Christ may be displayed among us, […]

You Have a New Follower

You Have a New Follower

November 6, 2015

Flight follower, that is.  I don’t keep up with Twitter and Pinterest like many of you out there, but I am familiar with the term “follow.”  Getting followers is nice, right?  It’s nice to feel that people value our opinions and are interested in what we’re doing. Having a flight follower isn’t exactly a popularity […]

Arizona: A Pokey Kind of Pretty

Arizona: A Pokey Kind of Pretty

October 6, 2015

Just the Facts: For approximately the next nine months of our lives, our family is based at the NTM Aviation headquarters in Arizona.  Here, Jared will undergo missions-specific flight training and contribute to the maintenance team in this final stage of preparation for overseas service.  Carol is learning in a class with other ladies how […]
