We’ve Moved!

February 17, 2017

New Tribes Mission’s New Home Office It’s been a while since the move to the new offices was on the docket. Not days or weeks, but years. Yes, more years than I care to admit. But it has finally happened! This Monday we officially began working at our new offices. And we’re loving it. We […]

Pray for Laborers

February 16, 2017

How has the first month and a half of 2017 been for you? We’d love to know how we can pray for you this year. Drop us a line if you have a minute. This month we consultants (Jennifer and our coworker Greg) got to give a stage 3 language evaluation. Since our new families […]

Two Coins

February 16, 2017

The story in the gospel of the widow with her 2 coins has started to come alive to me recently as I have traveled around visiting some of our families. One of my favorite parts of my ministry and talking with missionary moms. There are a lot of challenges that missionary moms face. Sure there […]

Four Wheels

February 14, 2017

Since our last update, we have gotten into a routine quite a bit more. We are doing language sessions 2-3 times a week, and hope to get up to 4 times pretty soon. But this is the first time we have done language study with a baby in the house. And he doesn’t help. Between […]

Granted, that verse has nothing to do with our news, or does it? I’ll let you answer that question for yourselves. Our passports […]

quieter community

February 10, 2017

Things are lot quieter around here than the last time I wrote. I’ve gone back to part time in the clinic, which has given me a lot more free -time to build up some of those relationships that fell by the wayside as I inched my way towards burnout. I’ve joined a ladies Bible study, […]

One “Little” Step Closer

February 10, 2017

You would think that moving to the other side of the globe would be a huge step for us. In some ways it is. After 4 years of praying, planning, training, etc, it’s awesome to see how God has worked in us and through us and in you and through you to see us finally […]

Different.

February 9, 2017

We’re here!!! Our first month in Tanzania has been exciting, draining, beautiful, blessed, challenging, normal, smooth, surreal, hot, and many more things all at once. And it’s been different. Different in many, often small, ways… We still sit down as a family for dinner, hold hands, pray, and enjoy a meal together. But it’s different. […]
