Got an Ax to Grind?

Got an Ax to Grind?

February 4, 2019

Our Isnag neighbors are all busy preparing rice fields and everyone has an ax to grind. Many people wonder why bench grinders have two grinding stones.  Some people think that one stone is course and the other fine. That may or may not be true, but the real reason is so that you and a […]

Timing Isn’t Everything

Timing Isn’t Everything

January 21, 2019

Heidi was reaching for the kitchen timer so I suggested that she should go for the white one, not the pink one. These spiders aren’t dangerous, but timing isn’t everything and for some unknown reason it still isn’t pleasant to have one run up your arm. Last week we went to town to have a […]

2019 not 2020

2019 not 2020

January 10, 2019

Happy New Year! We would like to share our vision for 2019, but it isn’t 20/20; some things are a bit fuzzy. We trust they will come into focus as the year progresses. It looks like we will be involved in 4 or 5 leadership meetings, 3 weddings, 2 cross-Pacific Ocean flights, and one major […]

Self-Control

Self-Control

December 19, 2018

Considering that here in the Philippines, Christmas seasons starts in September, I think we have shown a lot of self-control in waiting until December to start having Christmas programs.  We were doing well, but we lost it last week and had two programs. A third one is coming up in a few days.   The […]

How did last week go?

December 12, 2018

How did last week go? It went great! Thanks for asking. We started off the week with a visit from Evelin from Germany. Evelin is on a short-term mission trip to help our mission organize our various library resources. She decided to take a break from the books and come and add a bit of […]

You will be pleased to see that even though I’m late, I did get a picture of David teaching. David is a great teacher and people really engage with his illustrations. David has just started teaching through the book of Acts. One of the first things that happens in Acts is that many people hear […]

Is Missing Two out of Three Bad?

Is Missing Two out of Three Bad?

November 27, 2018

I spent last week doing the tedious job of working through the editing remarks that the translation consultants made when they checked the book of Romans last February. It isn’t that glamorous, so I don’t take many selfies of myself hunched over the computer. My intent was to take pictures of our co-workers who work […]

Flying

March 30, 2018

Our last week in Manila was full of meetings and packing. On March 19, we flew from the Philippines to Seattle. During our first week in the USA we worked on getting over jet lag and Heidi was the speaker at a ladies’ retreat at Brinnon, Washington. The snow topped mountains, spring flowers, eagles, and […]

Update for the 2nd week of March

March 12, 2018

Heidi and I spent last week at our northern Luzon flight center and got to see some great things taking place. On the top of the list is Alex and Cole finishing their formal Tagalog learning. Getting to the point where one can communicate well in another language takes a lot of hard work and […]

Wrapping Up

Wrapping Up

March 6, 2018

This past week we have been in wrap up mode. Thankfully, we had lots of help. Pastor Jon and his son, Kephas, from Westwood Baptist in Olympia, came out for a visit and helped us in many ways. Our pilot also spent a day helping me get some things done that have been on my […]
