Airplanes + Animals

September 24, 2014

It has been a busy week around the center! I definitely did not think I would have this much to do around here. It will peter off a bit after this week, but there’s still plenty of excitement around here. There are several projects that I’m working on with some of the staff here, and […]

Little House in the Desert

September 2, 2014

It’s been a whole week since we arrived in the desert, and we have survived! We have been busy settling in and getting our house set up. Our Little House in the Desert is coming along nicely, and is simple, sweet living. Arizona seems intent on busting my presuppositions about desert living. I thought it […]

Desert Roadtrip

August 26, 2014

Hi! We have finally made it to our destination in Arizona, and I finally found some time to squeeze out a blog post. I feel like I have so much to say! We landed in America a week and a half ago, and have been going full-tilt since then! A lovely family from our Wisconsin […]

Airplanes and Associates

May 10, 2014

Things are winding down at the school; we have only 1 class day, 1 test day, 2 work days, and then it’s all over. As usual, I have mixed feelings about it all. We’ve developed a few very close relationships with other students and staff here, and have seen many blessings since coming here. It’s […]

Transitions

April 25, 2014

It’s been a busy time for us, even though last week was spring break. After Josh quit working we have been able to meet with several people and just get to know them. It’s amazing how much you really miss something until you suddenly have it again. We’re entering into that period of transition that […]

Step of Faith

April 15, 2014

God has been doing some amazing things around here, y’all! A couple of weeks ago Josh spoke at our Wisconsin church’s missions luncheon; we passed around prayer cards and a sign up sheet for our email updates, talked about what we’re going to be doing, and got to meet many new people. We’ve really wanted […]

Postponed

February 18, 2013

That’s the word they used when they called us, and broke our hearts. After our {encouraging} interview at the NTM home-office a couple weeks ago, we received a phone call telling us that the Associate Board had decided we would benefit from another year of training; and so our fast-track to PNG at the end […]

Ever thought of landing on a dirt road?

November 9, 2012

This week in our training, we had a great time learning how to do package drops. We had a few bags filled with rocks and lime stone and tried to hit a 10ft by 10 ft box, flying 85 MPH 100 ft above the ground . It was not as easy hitting my mark as […]

Evaluation Week

October 27, 2012

We’re back from evaluation in Arizona!! If you were following the Faceook page, then you already know that we passed the evaluation!! Praise the Lord!! On our way to McNeal, we spent nine unexpected hours in the Dallas/Fort Worth airport because our flight was late (and we were bumped from standby to standby three times) […]

The Call

October 1, 2012

If you’ve read this blog at all over the last year and a half, you probably know that Josh and I have a heart for missions, and that our goal has always been to go into the field to serve our Lord as a missionary pilot, and teacher. Lately, Josh and I have been feeling […]
