A Story of God’s provision $5,000-$10,000. That’s all we asked for on that Sunday morning after Typhoon Haiyan slammed into the Philippines, leaving a swath of utter chaos and destruction from the east coast all the way to the islands on the western edge of Philippine territory. Enough to do a few survey flights and […]

As pictures and reports started pouring in from the internet & from co-workers, we sat stunned & felt completely overwhelmed. In a few short hours, “just another typhoon” had gone to a very close-to-home, massive tragedy. We had been preparing for this typhoon just like we had others, getting the word out, making sure people […]

How do you weep with those who weep and laugh with those who laugh, all at the same time? A couple of weeks ago, we sat in our living room rejoicing as some of our friends shared how the gospel has been received in their village – at times nearly 100 people attending on this […]

I don’t think we realized quite how intense that transition would be, though! We were settled back into our house and flying again almost […]

I’m excited to fly in tomorrow and hopefully see some of the new believers mentioned in the previous post. Now they understand why so many of us have given years of our lives and so many other resources to share this message with them! No longer just acquaintances, tomorrow I get to greet them as […]

One of the hardest things we have ever done was saying goodbye to our friends and family and moving to another country on the other side of the world. As we struggled to learn how to relate to a new culture and a new language, we sometimes wondered: “Is it really worth it?”

For those of you who didn’t get a chance to see this, here’s a summary of our last 3 years in 2-1/2 minutes!

We have purchased tickets for our return to the Philippines! While it’s been wonderful to have a few months with friends and family and to reconnect with many of you, we are ready to get back to the work God has called us to. These few months have been encouraging and refreshing, but they have […]
