Preparing for Bolivia

September 10, 2010

Bolivia, one of the first countries that New Tribes Mission opened up in the 1940’s, is the location of our next trip! Even though it’s an older mission field, there’s still plenty of work for tribal missionaries. Several groups in Bolivia have yet to hear the Gospel even once! And to finish up well, there is […]

unwritten languages

August 20, 2010

Did you know that there are over 6,000 spoken languages in the world today, and only about half exist in written form? That means there are over 450 million people who still do not have a way to write their own language. This impacts the work of the Church because without writing, these groups do […]

and we’re off…

July 29, 2010

for another adventure! This time we are returning to the lovely country of Colombia with its dramatic rainforests, mountains, and colorful cultures.

A great Bible translation will not have the life-changing effect that God desires, if […]

Kuna conference 2009 and a tragedy

December 9, 2009

Thanks so much for your prayers for the Kuna conference in Panama. It was a wonderful time with the pastors and wives from 49 Kuna churches. We had great times in the Word together, plus somehow even in the midst of all the crowds of people, God gave us some of the best times ever […]

Counting it ALL joy!

October 9, 2009

About two years ago a young Kuna couple were sent out by their church to work as missionaries in an unreached village upriver. This was a complete miracle as God opened doors that were previously completely closed to the Gospel. In these first years of ministry in the village, Anelio & Silverixia have faced opposition […]
