Revising in May-June 2021

May 26, 2021

We have been waiting to complete some long-term translation projects for French-speaking West Africa. (There are 20 countries that use French as an official language). Recently, we received a request for a more accessible, downloadable version of the French 3-volume set of “Building on Firm Foundations”. I had edited and translated this set in 2005, […]

French in October 2020

October 26, 2020

The 14 men in the photo are all church leaders from the Loron people group in northeastern Côte d’Ivoire. They were having a church development workshop, led by Norbert who traveled to one of their villages to teach this seminar last month. This was a follow-up session for these local church teachers who no longer […]

No trips in March 2020

March 16, 2020

The Coronavirus has affected many international travelers. And while we had not planned any trip this month, we have been praying about whether a trip to Haiti could happen by the last week of July. I would still love to be able to teach a 2-week pastors’ training course down there. This teaching material starts […]

Our January 2020 Vision

January 19, 2020

You are probably tired of clichés about 20/20 vision, so let me simply say that we still want your prayers so that we will see clearly what God wants Martha and I to be doing for this coming year. No, we are not foreseeing any particular changes, not in our care for my mom, […]

Praying in August 2019

August 27, 2019

Many of you prayed for us throughout this summer. So how did the Lord answer your prayers? We do believe He did, and we are so thankful for those that read our prayer & praise notes, and then remember us before the Lord. We are also grateful for the many that faithfully participate in […]

Life in May 2019

May 14, 2019

Hi again, April showers bring May flowers. My mom, Hedy, says the weeds in our front & back yards are starting to call her. It’s hard to persuade dear momma to relax, to not work too hard. It’s spring, after all! Mom has recovered well from her falls and skin cancer minor surgery. We had […]

January 25, 2019

Happy New Year, Like many of you, we have looked back to evaluate our efforts in 2018, and we wonder what the Lord has for us in 2019 and beyond. Will the Lord give us another 4 years of full-time missionary service (until I turn 70)? Or will it be 8 years or even 18 […]

Unreached in October 2018

October 16, 2018

One of the joys of serving the Lord from North America is being able to see our grandchildren, more than every 4 years. We saw 4 grandchildren in Idaho after only 2 years, this summer, and we will be seeing 3 more grandkids in North Carolina the end of October. Then for Christmas we plan […]

Strumming in June 2018

June 25, 2018

Hi from Alabama, again, The Broadway Baptist Church missions trip to Haiti (June 10–16) went great! Thanks for your prayers! I enjoyed being able to participate in things like: putting up eaves troughs (called “gutters” here in Alabama) to collect cistern water for the orphanage, throwing Frisbees and holding babies for hours, and playing my […]

Orientation in April-May 2018

April 25, 2018

Theo is joining our local church missions trip to Haiti June 10-16. He is helping give orientation pep talks about cultural awareness and safety to the 16 or more trip participants in these weeks before they leave. Martha has been selling BBQ tickets for meals the church will prepare as a fund-raiser for this trip. […]
