The past two weeks we have had some really great opportunities to serve here in Asia Pacific. We would love to share with you the exciting things God is doing. But instead of writing about it here, how about an update in person? In two weeks we will be arriving in Jacksonville, Florida to begin […]

A highlight from this past year has been to do foundational Bible teaching with a couple here in town. Lazuardi and Lilly are Chinese background people living in Asia Pacific.

“Jesus doesn’t merely come down to show you the way up- Jesus comes down to make Himself into the Way to carry you up” -Ann Voskamp As I pondered this today in my advent reading it was such a refreshing reminder of our dear Savior who is like no other religious leader/prophet/god.

I think this is a common theme for most of us these days as the politics of the pandemic continues to alter plans and decisions in one way or another. As we wrote in our last update we were planning a trip into the village this summer. Well just 3 days before we were to […]

“And He walks with me and He talks with me, and He tells me I am His own…” What a personal thought and hymn. That of our Savior walking and talking with us as a friend. Enjoying our company and desiring to connect with us. I’ve been thinking lately of how wonderful it is to […]
