Culture fun

Culture fun

August 30, 2017

When we’re out in My Village, it’s not all about the houses, but there’s a lot of language, culture, and relationships, too.  This last time out there I was able to get a few pictures to show you that I  really do work and not just goof off.  🙂  The above picture is of me […]

Peanut field – it’s planted!

Peanut field – it’s planted!

August 30, 2017

Thanks for your prayers for my peanut/bean field!  My host mom and others planted it for me after they got seeds.  Thanks to them!  When I was out there this last time Jen and I got to visit our fields, and here you’ll see me among my baby peanut plants.  All is going well so […]

House update – almost done!

House update – almost done!

August 30, 2017

And yes, after another trip out to My Village last week, I have another update on our houses.  Since the last time I was out there, the tiles have been done in the bathrooms!  It’s kind of hard to tell in this picture, but they’re purple and white.   When I first looked into my […]

Update on house

Update on house

August 18, 2017

Sorry this post is a week late.  Life happens.   You can see the pictures of my house as it stood last Friday.  The front porch was done except for a ramp to bring your motorcycle in the house at night (here it’s unthinkable to let your motorcycle sleep anywhere but in the house)!  My […]

Tall One

Tall One

August 18, 2017

  At 5’3″, I’m not used to being called the tall one. But that’s exactly how I was referred to . . . The other day I was chatting with my host mom (in Jula), and she was telling me more about life on their end when we were about to move in. She had […]

Practice for Uncle Steve

Practice for Uncle Steve

August 18, 2017

My Uncle Steve said that next time I’m in the US I need to teach him how to tie stuff onto his motorcycle. I figured I’d give it some more practice today as I was buying stuff that I’ll need for the village. So on my way home from downtown I had: Between my legs: […]

Meeting the “king!”

Meeting the “king!”

August 7, 2017

  When you are about to move into a little village full of people who speak a different language and have a different culture, and who have never heard the good news about Jesus, what do you need to do?  Well, there are a bazillion different steps, and I don’t even know all the steps […]

Update to July 1st post: Fields, and prayer needed

Update to July 1st post: Fields, and prayer needed

August 5, 2017

On July 1st I posted about planting corn with my host mom, and also asking for prayer about whether or not I could actually plant a peanut field this year like I was hoping to do. In the post, I said that I’d have to plant it soon and didn’t know if I’d have time. […]

Why have you come?

Why have you come?

August 5, 2017

Sometimes it’s hard to keep my eyes on the big picture. It’s easy to get bogged down in the details of life: to worry about all the things that need to be done before I can FINALLY move into the village one of these days instead of realizing what a great honor and privilege and […]

Don’t Cry Over Spilt Milk

Don’t Cry Over Spilt Milk

August 4, 2017

  When my parents came in December, they brought gifts from some people in the US. In one of those, there were chocolate pudding mixes! I made one a while ago in the city, but since I had made it with powdered milk instead of regular milk (since the powdered variety is much more common […]
