Falsely Accused

July 6, 2015

It’s hard to wrap my mind around the fact that in our day and age someone could be accused of witchcraft — and condemned without a shred of evidence. Yet here I sit, my heart burdened for a family on the other side of the world, for a family I don’t even know. My heart breaks for the brother who thought he could protect his sister — and realized too late […]

The Joy of Yes!

June 12, 2015

Remember that trip to Mexico I took last year? Well there was a purpose behind it. I was after interviews and background to write an article about Amelia. This story shows that where you come from doesn’t limit God. God takes us right where we’re at. He just wants a heart that will say, “Yes, […]

A Trip North

May 4, 2015

It was a mixture of vacation and ministry. It involved putting 2,400 plus miles on my Toyota Yaris over four days of driving solo. It was both great fun and pure exhaustion as I managed to fit the following into a 10-day stay: There were opportunities to give a testimony and update at Second Baptist Church of Auburn, NY; at […]

Teachers Needed!

April 6, 2015

As a staff writer here at NTM, I read a lot of blogs and letters as I research for articles. One stood out to me today. It was a letter from yet another missionary in Papua New Guinea expressing the need for teachers for this coming school year at Numonohi Christian Academy, their school for missionary children. This has […]

Overwhelmed

March 19, 2015

Here at NTM Communications, our theme this year is: “Meet the needs you see in faith.” The lead article of the March issue of the NTM@work magazine highlights this so well. “Overwhelmed” paints a clear picture of the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan that struck the Philippines last year. Facing such devastation, missionary pilot Brian Pruett felt overwhelmed. […]

The Impossible Fish Story

March 12, 2015

Some things just aren’t possible. They just don’t happen. Like fish jumping into your boat, begging to be bait. When you go fishing the fish stay in the water — unless you’re luckier than I am and you actually catch something. On a lure. On a line. In the water. And then YOU pull the […]

What’s in a Job Description?

March 5, 2015

With nearly a year working here at NTM’s USA headquarters in Florida, I must say it’s quite different from working in a tribal setting. I’m not studying language or culture, and there’s not a steady stream of tribal people stopping by to chat. I’m not stitching up cuts on the feet, the face — or […]

January 14, 2015

Get a warm cup of cocoa and sit down to watch Thank you Bloopers with your family! We made funny faces and forgot our lines to bring you a bit of laughter. We hope you enjoy these genuine bloopers from the video “Thank you from New Tribes’ Communications Team”. Did you miss the original Thank You video? Click […]

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

December 31, 2014

*2014 — It’s been a year of changes!* January-March … were full of meetings and visits for Partnership Development (a.k.a. Deputation). In April … I moved to Florida to join New Tribes Mission’s communications team. In May … I bought a house — but then rented it out temporarily. During that time, my parents were able to come down […]

Thank You!

November 23, 2014

Thanksgiving is just around the corner — and there is so much to be thankful for! Big things like salvation — and almost as big of things like family and friends, being settled into my new home, and being a part of a ministry I love here at New Tribes Mission. And then there’s you! […]
