Momentum Returns

May 12, 2020

Support Update (Good News!) I want to share an inspiring analogy here about how things are going for us, but I don’t think that it’s needed. What is needed is being provided!

April 7, 2020

We hope that this finds you and your family well. Joyce and I are healthy and working from home. There sure have been lots of changes to life in a few short weeks, haven’t there? The virus has changed the way we greet each other, shop, work, clean, educate the kids, meet together as a […]

multiplying a treasure

March 15, 2019

Some treasures are too big to keep to yourself – you’ve just got to share them with others! That’s what we’ve found with the literacy software. But for this big treasure to be shared with the many on our worldwide literacy team who don’t speak English, it has been translated into Spanish, Portuguese, French, etc. […]
