We Are So Thankful!!!

February 5, 2013

In our last prayer letter, we asked that you pray regarding our financial support. Thank you so much for doing that. With several one-time gifts, anonymous gifts, and even friends who gave to our ministry instead of receiving Christmas presents, we have now seen our monthly support go from 62% to 70%. And once again […]

Stacation

November 18, 2012

What is a stacation? When you stay home for the entire vacation, it is a stacation. We just did a two week stacation. I don’t think we could have picked a better block of time in Phoebe’s life if we tried. We knew the break would encompass her first birthday, but had no idea it […]

Woking @ Hangar & Home

September 15, 2012

Working at the Hangar A few of you were aware that our aviation department here in Papua New Guinea recently was audited by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). This scheduled audit is a time when they review our operations and decide if we are functioning within their guidelines. The audit went better than ever […]

Back in Papua New Guinea

June 23, 2012

Early May we said our final good-byes and boarded our first of 4 flights to get us back to PNG. The 16+ hour flight from Dallas to Brisbane was a piece of cake compared to the 50 minute flight from Port Moresby to Goroka. Phoebe (and Mom and Dad) were done being in the air. […]

Heading Back to Papua New Guinea

A Look In The Rearview Mirror

March 30, 2012

Road Trip This little piggy went to Bolivar, MO via W. Virginia, Kentucky, Illinois and Indiana. We had a great overnight visit with Paul’s friends from Bible school days. It was great to re-connect as well as meet some new folks starting up a Christian aviation business at the local county airport. This little piggy […]

7Flights & 7 Beds

September 28, 2011

The months of August and September have flown by in a blur. We are so thankful for your prayers as we packed up our home in Papua New Guinea and prepared to head back to the US for these next months of home assignment. Because Andrea was 7 months pregnant, we decided to “island hop” […]

God is doing amazing things!

As missionaries living at our NTM’s PNG headquarters, we often have opportunities to visit with bush missionaries who are out for medical needs, meetings, schooling, and breaks.

Refreshment & Praise

November 20, 2010

Taking A Break We want to start by saying thank you to all those who have been praying for us. As most of you know it was an intense and stressful summer with the minimal staffing. We both held much responsibility within our departments at the hangar. This was a huge learning curve for both […]

A.O.G.

August 23, 2010

For those of you who don’t know aircraft lingo, AOG stands for Aircraft On Ground. And that is what we are dealing with at our NTM Aviation hangar here in PNG. Back in July Paul and the maintenance team were doing some routine inspections on our helicopter when they noticed signs of a problem. “Can […]
