Do you remember those days gone by when you received a report card from school?  Were you an all “A” student?  And what classes did you do best in?  Algebra?  Chemistry?  PE?  Recently, Stephen was working with a couple of believers and trying to figure out the best illustration for his upcoming sermon.  And then […]

It is said, “A picture is worth a thousand words.”  With that in mind, we want to take this update and share with you some of the pictures Stephen took during our first few weeks back in the village.  As you scroll through the pictures, taking a moment to read the descriptions, can you find […]

Praise the Lord with us for a safe trip to Manila over this past weekend.  All of our prayer requests were answered with a “yes.”  Yes, we were able to receive all of our boarding passes in Chicago.  Yes, we were able to make our connecting flight with extra time to spare.  Yes, all our […]

Just a few more days and then we are heading back to the Philippines.  With meetings behind us, kids off to college, puzzle completed (in memory of our anniversary trip), one last date night, Christmas cards stuffed, and we now move forward.  Our list of things to wrap up is getting shorter.  But we still […]

The weather outside isn’t frightful nor are carolers singing outside our door.  But the Jordan family is celebrating Christmas together. Several months ago, our daughters asked if we could celebrate Christmas together as a family while we are in the States, as we will be back in the Philippines in December.  So, we set this […]

As many of you know, we are back in Michigan, and during the month of May we have enjoyed . . . . . . the cool spring weather . . . . . . the beauty of the Upper Peninsula . . . . . . Luke and Jonathan reuniting with friends . . […]

This past week began on Palm Sunday with four believers who proclaimed their faith in Jesus Christ alone through baptism.  We are so excited for these believers and ask you to pray for their growth in Christ. And then the week ended with a 3-day Bible Camp.  As we mentioned before, we had no idea […]
