Finally Back to Normal

May 27, 2017

I (Amy) forgot what it was like to feel normal. After the birth of Lily, our fourth precious child, I began a time of postpartum depression that lasted for about five months. This came on the heels of my third trimester of pregnancy, already much harder than with our previous children. Looking back, it’s as […]

Ethnos360: New Name, Same Commission

May 4, 2017

By now, I imagine many of you have heard New Tribes Mission has changed names. (If not, it would be understandable if you were confused by the new logo on this blog post!) We now operate as Ethnos360 – the same organization, but with a new label.

Firm Foundations

April 15, 2017

When ‘foundations’ come up in conversation with a New Tribes missionary, often the subject is an evangelism tool by Trevor McIlwain called Building on Firm Foundations. One of NTM’s primary church-planting methods is chronological Bible teaching – introducing people to their Creator in the Old Testament, and building a foundation for understanding Jesus’ death and […]

Returning to Las Moras

September 25, 2016

In late August, my friend Sergio and I rode 17 hours on an overnight bus trip. After three more hours on a second bus line we spent the night with a UIM pilot, then flew to our destination in a small mission aircraft. Around 42 hours after leaving Chihuahua we finally arrived in Las Moras: […]

No Car? No Problem (for God)!

August 23, 2016

Discouraged, I took my keys back from the salesman and walked outside. I had come to this Chevy dealership with one purpose: selling our struggling Uplander minivan during my weekend in El Paso, so I would not return to Mexico with a defunct vehicle registered to my Mexican resident’s visa. If the minivan broke down […]

Carrying a Full Load

July 6, 2016

AMY: Sitting in our first Spanish language classes almost two years ago, I was very pregnant with Joel. It was so exciting to be in Mexico, beginning to catch bits of the language and expecting our third child! Little did I know that less than eighteen months later I would be pregnant once more and […]

A Team, a Tribe, and a Truck

May 24, 2016

Over the past few months, our family has prayerfully considered where God would have us go after Chihuahua. We have examined the options before us, sought counsel from incredible brothers and sisters in Christ, and ultimately waited on God to make this clear in His timing. All this taught us much about trusting our loving […]
