Where to next?
Lots of travels already this year and we are preparing for the next trip. Let’s see how you know your world facts and if you can discern where we are going in a few weeks…
Kuna literacy update
The results of the first 9 months using the newly revised literacy program have been very encouraging. Students of all ages have completed the 5 book series and are now reading in Kuna! There are Kuna Grandmas who had given up hope on ever being able to read God’s Word who are now reading and […]
Believers face increased opposition
Pray for the believers in some Kuna villages who are facing increased difficulties as they take stands. In these locations besides the monetary fines for not participating in the village-wide drinking festivals, believers are being fined and/or put in confinement for using clinics or hospitals instead of the village medicine men. When asked why they […]
Kuna church needs prayer
The church in the village were we lived is at a low point and in need of your prayers. Some of this is from pressures from the village. Some of this is from believers who need to work out differences and humbly seek God together. Although it’s been 2 years, Edelfonso is still very much […]
standing side-by-side
We are so thankful for those fellow servants of Christ who stand side-by-side with us for the Gospel’s sake! Our next trip is to Canada to help with the literacy training given to missionary candidates. It is always such a joy to meet the young people preparing to serve the Lord all around the world. […]
Dear Missiona-ries

They return to the States on July 15, so these next weeks are full of packing, cleaning and good-byes. Pam arranged […]
literacy training in Bolivia
Hello from Bolivia! We are about to begin the final week of the literacy course here at the missionary training center. There are students from Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Peru and it is so exciting to think of the ministries that God is preparing for each of them. We have certainly come to love and appreciate […]
keeping those suitcases free of dust…
Yep, it’s time to get out our suitcases again. We are preparing for an important trip to Bolivia. We leave the end of this month for Bolivia. One project we’ve been working on is to update the literacy training that missionary candidates receive and then to train the trainers. This trip to Bolivia is a […]
happy iguana month
A very happy “Iguana Month” to you! That is February in Kuna-land. This month the Kuna literacy teaching teams in Panama are beginning their classes. Recently we received word from Hernan, the Kuna brother who is coordinating the literacy effort that he has been training literacy teachers from several more Kuna communities who didn’t participate in […]
