We’ve been back on the field for 5 months already, and we have been pretty busy at times. Some highlights have been finishing homeschooling the kids, traveling to another island to get new visas back in June, helping host a group of younger people interested in missions as well as doing different things with our […]

We have come to the end of our furlough time and will be heading back to Asia Pacific next week. As we look back at all that has happened during these 9 months, we are grateful we had the chance to spend time with many of you, share at some new churches and see much […]

We probably all know Proverbs 16:9- “The mind of a person plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps.” It turns out, this is true with the birth of babies, too. We were visiting my parents in Starbuck, WA last weekend when Alisha went into early labor. She wasn’t due for four more weeks, […]

We’ve been back in the states for 3+ months now and our furlough is close to being half over. We plan on heading back to the field at the end of February or beginning of March 2024. The kids are just now starting school for the year and Alisha is now in her third trimester. […]

Summer is over and fall is coming for those of you in the northern hemisphere. Fall is a season that we miss every year, so we just pretend it’s here by drinking apple cider and lighting scented candles 🙂 Our last 3 or 4 months have been almost constantly busy. We have had 38 guests […]

We just started the new year a couple weeks ago it seems like, but now we are in the transition period between one group of language learners moving on to another region and a new group of people coming in next month to begin culture and language study. We usually have 2 to 3 new […]

We’ve been back in country for 2 and a half months now and have gotten settled into our roles again. We’re working with a mostly new group of people studying language, but our jobs are largely the same. I help as a language consultant, handle some financial things for our area and other various things […]

   Our home assignment is half over and we’ve been busy lately with homeschooling the kids, working part-time, sharing at different churches and taking Davis to appointments with various doctors. Elroy and Scout have been working away at math, writing and other subjects with help from Alisha. I (Lincoln) have been working off and on […]
