Can it possibly be? I was thinking about what to write this month and it occurred to me that this could be close to the 250th report we’ve sent out since beginning our ministry with NTM. Some of you…folks we have met along the way in places like FL, MI, PA, MO, ID, CA, IN, OH, SC, […]
After 6 months in NM, we are finding out just how big a place ABQ is. It is located within Bernalillo county, which has a total area of 1,167 square miles, of which 1,161 square miles is land and 6.4 square miles is water (this beach lover can’t seem to find the water). The map shows a […]
What an incredible send off Skiff Lake Bible Church gave us before we left for New Mexico. A mystery dinner, a wonderful crowd of saints, beautiful singing, many encouraging words and diligent prayer; our hearts were full of praise for days. Thank You LORD.

Zipline here we come! The last week of July found Shirley and me in the Dominican Republic for an incredible time of rest, relaxation and celebrating our 40th anniversary a bit early. We spent a week in and around the pool, the beach, the restaurants and even joined a jeep safari for a day of […]
It is always encouraging to hear of past students who graduate New Tribes Bible Institute and continue on in the training with New Tribes Mission. It is another thing all together when we hear that they actually leave the states and arrive on the field they have chosen. That excites our hearts to no end, […]
Within the last week we have heard about more tribal people hearing the Gospel and believing! Another church has been born near the Madang region of Papua New Guinea. Our friends and alumni Jason and Nisae were the ones God used to bring these folks into the family. Praise the Lord. This is the kind of news […]
This is a sad story, but one that our missionaries run into constantly. The people believe if they do nothing, they will die. Their worldview says they must kill or be killed.
