Scopes in January 2012

January 13, 2012

What’s the scope? We had a great visit with the Lieb family from Haiti last month, as they were traveling through the area on their “home assignment”. We have since been able to send them a Scope & Sequence proposition, laying out what the Grade Two Bible lessons would teach, along with several sample lessons. […]

Another Project Finished! The 350-page teachers’ manual for Grade One Bible lessons is completed! It is being printed by the Baptist Haiti Mission, for use in their 330 schools in northern Haiti.

QUESTIONS in November 2011

November 3, 2011

Questions, but not questioning God! It hardly seems possible that we had packed up to move to Florida a year ago, now, but here we are, still serving from Alabama. We do keep busy working on our “long-distance” grade one Bible lessons project for Haiti. We praise the Lord that in October, we found some […]

Excitement in October 2011

October 3, 2011

A new church is born!! Just today, as I write this (Oct.1st), we have heard that a new body of believers was started this weekend among another previously-unreached people group. This was in Papua New Guinea, among the Siar tribe. Another piece to the Revelations 5:9 puzzle is coming together! [For more details click on […]

Countdown in September 2011

September 6, 2011

10, 9, 8, 7 … « Dix, neuf, huit, sept, … » I find my days filled with editing, proof-reading and multiple minute details, as the countdown for preparing these grade one Bible lessons for Haiti is upon us. Their schools start October 3rd, and all of the final checking hasn’t been completed yet. […]

Alone in August 2011

August 12, 2011

I’m home alone! Martha flew out to California, to visit our oldest son Aaron, Avé, and our three grandchildren (ages 5, 3 & just-turned 2). And I’m at home working on the Haiti Bible lessons for grade one. We are a bit behind schedule right now on these lessons, since working on a translation from long […]

AHH! in July 2011

July 12, 2011

Here’s what I remember when I say AHH! A – reminds me of Africa, where our co-workers have returned for the summer again, working on Bible translation into the Palaka language, and encouraging the fledgling native church. They are also teaching them some computer skills to help in the Bible translation process which the […]

Aching in April 2011

April 6, 2011

Aching for Côte d’Ivoire! With fighting escalating in our former home town, Abidjan (as of April 4th) we just ache for all the hurting people of Ivory Coast. They are experiencing terrible disruptions (lack of food, gasoline, means to work, lootings, burnings, and worse) because of the rival and tribal fighting and killings. We […]

September 10, 2010

Don’t you just love moving? Martha and I have been awed as we watch God line up our next mission assignment. You remember from our previous memos that I started editing a Bible curriculum for grade one for the Haiti Baptist Mission last summer. And now this summer, as I led a couple more […]
