Appealing Ambassadors

Appealing Ambassadors

January 9, 2021

I made it. You know, sometimes people say they don’t know what to write about in their newsletters and that’s just not a problem I ever have!  It seems like so much has happened since I last saw or wrote most of you, but then again, the lessons I continue to learn and see reinforced […]

The Whirlwind

The Whirlwind

December 15, 2020

Originally sent November 23, 2020 I found out a little over a week ago that the “mid-December” flight I had decided to try for, would actually be departing November 29 and arriving in PNG on December 2.  As many of you know, I am a planner and that left me with two fewer weeks to […]

An Irritant in the Mouths of Oysters

An Irritant in the Mouths of Oysters

December 11, 2020

originally written October 26, 2020 I feel like experience after experience, interactions and small world connections keep layering on top of one another.  It’s hard to see clearly what it is God is up to, but I know with confidence that He is in control and sees clearly what my eyes have not brought into […]

The Million Dollar Question

The Million Dollar Question

August 30, 2020

You know how there are times in life when you might hear the same question a lot?  When you start kindergarten— “do you like school!?”  Or when you’re a senior in high school you might be asked what you’re going to do when you graduate?  When you’re getting married, people will say, “when’s the date?” […]

Abundant Beautiful Full.  And yet, I wait.

Abundant Beautiful Full. And yet, I wait.

July 3, 2020

It’s fun to think back on the past 11 weeks, hard to believe it’s already been that long really. I’ve been able to eat sushi, poblano peppers stuffed with chorizo, my friend Sarah’s meatballs, peaches and watermelon. I’ve been able to celebrate my nephew’s 2nd birthday with a cow cake (which he tried to feed), my niece’s 6th birthday […]

Wind Yer Neck In

Wind Yer Neck In

May 3, 2020

Originally published April 18, 2020 Surprise!  Shortly after I sent my last update the US embassy arranged a repatriation flight.  It’s a fancy way of saying— we recognize international travel closed very quickly and some of you ex-pats in Papua New Guinea may have wanted to go home some time in the next few months.  […]

Unbelief

Unbelief

April 17, 2020

First published April 1, 2020 I try to make a habit of reading through our missionaries’ updates, the newsletters from my co-workers. I want to know what’s going on with them and sometimes, with permission, I like to share their stories on our social media. A few weeks ago, I read one from a friend […]

What things would you miss the most?

What things would you miss the most?

February 8, 2020

Besides family and friends the best things about being in the States were: 1.  Christian radio and new music 2.  The Apple Store and their ability to fix the problems I’ve been having with my computer for the past 11 months by sending it away for all of 3 days. 3.  The Cozy Cottage, of […]

The Journey We’re All On

The Journey We’re All On

January 28, 2020

(Originally written on December 16, 2020.) I know it’s hard to believe, but I’m having a bit of difficulty determining what to write in this, my last email newsletter of my first year in Papua New Guinea.  As I traveled today, I was working on clearing out some of the photos on my phone (it […]

It Takes Time

It Takes Time

January 26, 2020

(Originally posted November 16, 2019) Something that has started to stand out to me as I continue in this Bible Study through Acts, is the amount of time that passes.  In reading Acts before, I was under the impression that things happened one thing after the other in a matter of months.  But in reality, […]
