it’s been a while

November 1, 2018

Hi there, remember me? I used to blog in this space. I used to write about our everyday happenings, new recipes I was loving, big things I was feeling. And then I stopped. I found that I couldn’t really tell you everything I was feeling, or everything that was going on — I could never […]

furlough

January 7, 2018

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I’ve managed to get out a grand total of TWO blog posts during our home assignment, and it was May before that, so let me try and get some of these thoughts out. This is our very first home assignment, a sixth month leave from Papua New Guinea to […]

bad blogger

October 3, 2017

Wow, it’s been since MAY that I blogged last. They say it’s bad blogging etiquette to say “It’s been SO LONG. I’m sorry I’m a bad blogger. It’s been super busy.” But you know what? It has. Ministry: There have been more medevacs, which means both Josh and I work extra. From July 2016 to […]

The vision for Ethnos360 is exactly the same as New Tribes Mission, it just uses more culturally appropriate language for the various places they work, stepping […]

quieter community

February 10, 2017

Things are lot quieter around here than the last time I wrote. I’ve gone back to part time in the clinic, which has given me a lot more free -time to build up some of those relationships that fell by the wayside as I inched my way towards burnout. I’ve joined a ladies Bible study, […]

big steps

January 13, 2017

I haven’t written in the last few months, but there has been so much going on! Josh and I have been really, really, really busy. No, really. :-) NTMA has been working really hard at getting the flight program back on track, a process that has been going on for a couple of years now. […]

busy work

October 22, 2016

What an interesting couple of months it has been! I can’t even believe it’s been that long since I blogged, because it has been so busy that time has seriously just flown by! Let me try and summarize: August It seems like we all had medevac on the brain; there was something like 1 a […]

How can it be August already? Howww?? Time is moving way too fast right now. I thought that summer would be slow and boring, but boy, was I wrong. It has been so busy and so full that I’m not sure I can even remember everything we’ve done! I just know that there hasn’t been […]
