If you listened to Christian music in the 90’s you will remember the song Step by Step by Rich Mullins. It was a simple yet powerful prayer song declaring our hope to, day by day and step by step walk with God. Along the way there will be highs and lows, victories and failures. In […]

We have started out 2022 with a renewed effort to connect with the believers in the village. Although they are never far from our thoughts and prayers, 2021 was spent serving in other areas of ministry. Tim was able to spend New Years in the village and get some things set us for the family […]

Happy Advent Friends! Embracing the wonder of this season has been my (Andrea) theme as of late.

New Year’s Greetings! We wanted to send out a few pictures and updates on what our ministry in town and in the villages has looked like these last few months! After about a month of staying at the mission home complex we had done enough setup for us to move into a house we are […]

In Just a few days we will begin our travels that will take us back to our other home in Southeast Asia. We have had a very different but also refreshing home assignment. Who could have guessed how Covid would affect us all in 2020, but our family has benefited by the required, “stay at […]
