We’re Coming Home!

July 31, 2018

We’re Coming Home! Greetings from Papua New Guinea! We have decided to take a Home Assignment (furlough) starting in a few weeks! With Aaron not getting help in Australia for his sinus issues, and Aaron’s sister not doing well with her cancer, it just seemed to be the right time – even though it’s rather […]

Research

July 31, 2018

One of the tasks we have is to decide where we will work as an organization. We are looking for people groups with the least access to the gospel. This research takes time and so we try to keep ahead of it so that we have options for new places people can work by the […]

Update on Josh’s Surgery

July 30, 2018

So Monday morning it was. Josh’s surgery today went well. It seems that all the mass was able to be removed. Also, he was able to come home and recuperate here. We won’t hear back from the pathologist, until later this week, so we wait for now, and he rests. We really appreciate all the […]

Urgent Prayer: Visas

July 30, 2018

This weekend, we need to renew our Mexican residency visas. After living here for four years, we are eligible for permanent residency – which eliminates the need for future renewals, saving us time and money from now on. Unfortunately, we have encountered a big problem. In the United States it is understood that a woman […]

Saying goodbye and many praises….

July 30, 2018

The Gerai Bible audio recording team may have showed up on June 13th with all but the kitchen sink, BUT somehow they left on July 18 taking the sink with them!! We really miss their very contagious enthusiasm and laughter around this church complex. They left with the same enthusiasm they brought when they arrived. […]

Road Trip Out West

July 29, 2018

As the school year ended in May we were praying and asking the Lord how He would have us spend our summer. It had been over 3 years since we had traveled as a family out to visit loved ones out west and we really wanted the opportunity to take advantage of the summer to […]

Urgent prayer request…

July 29, 2018

Last Wednesday, I went in to have “something checked out.” On Thursday, the doctor said I needed to see the urologist “right away.” Then, on Friday, I was told by “my urologist” that since there is a 98% chance that I’ve got what appears to be testicular cancer, I’ll be having outpatient surgery tomorrow morning […]

July 29 2018 Prayer Summary

July 29, 2018

Quote of the week: “The Blesser sends trials because the trials are blessings. Most covet the “blessing” of having the trial removed. The Lord knows the nature of the obstacle in me which He has to overcome: a less efficient hand might think that it could be dealt with in some other way.” Dear Friends, […]

Making Progress!

July 28, 2018

Ned has been working through taping the book of Matthew with Robin each day. It is a long process but it changes the rough draft Ned did while we were in the USA to a smoother, more natural version of the Scriptures. When someone who is not a native English speaker tells you a story […]
