Community with Spurs

August 28, 2018

Packing up and moving our little family has been quite the ordeal. A newborn and a sick one-year-old is not the best combination for a stress-free move. The night before we moved I sat in bed stressed out and discouraged. Lucas had just checked Sebastian’s temperature and it was 104. Any higher and we would […]

Update June 2018

July 12, 2018

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, We give thanks to the Lord for the trip that Virgilio and Alberto made to visit the Guahibo missionaries. Thank you for your prayers! We count it a privilege to continue having a part in discipling these folks; they continue to be encouraged in their ministry despite the many […]

A Look Back

June 6, 2018

It is so exciting, and kind of strange to finally be able to finally say this! We are officially members of Ethnos360! After 6 years of working and training we have finally made it! Before I talk about what our future holds I want to take a minute to look back, to just pause for […]

Our Journey Has Begun

October 11, 2017

Actually, it began back in October of 2016. It has taken us this long to get things settled to a place where we can gather our thoughts and share them. Life has been a whirlwind. When we left Awana in late September 2016 (after 15 years), we didn’t know what God had for us. We […]

Can we say Thank You?!

July 26, 2017

[joel and bethany potter] If you’re praying for us, YOU are getting behind what we’re doing and asking our God to be glorified in our lives and through our work. If you’re giving to us, YOU are using God’s resources to back God’s work through us. If you’re talking about and sharing the stories we’re […]

“Wherever you go…”

July 24, 2017

Matthew 28:19 in GOD’S WORD Translation reads: “So wherever you go, make disciples of all nations…” There’s no limit to that command, no boundary or border we can cross that relieves us from the responsibility to carry it out…no, it says wherever. So, yeah, I’m “just” a mechanic, but missionary aviation is about more than […]

Desecrate the Sacred Pictures

June 1, 2017

Spirit pictures painted on sheets of bark “Take them,” Watofo said in January of 2006, his voice wheezing with the effort to speak. “Get them out of the house.” Fato’s brow furrowed. The Hewa shaman, Watofo, had gone in and out of consciousness with the fevers, but now he was making no sense. Fato, Waina […]
