Hope

January 19, 2022

As the new year began, we were able to get out of the city and enjoy a few days at the beach with another family. It was nice to relax and enjoy God’s nature, the pounding of the waves, sea life in the tide pools and a break from all the work. There was going […]

Happy New Year

December 31, 2021

We thank God for all the He did in 2021! The first half of 2021 was in the US which we thoroughly loved being with friends and family! But for the second half, God opened the door for us to return to the Philippines! For first semester everything was still in lockdown in the Philippines, […]

Thankful to be in the Philippines

October 13, 2021

We are thankful to be back serving in the Philippines, and we are thankful for all of you who pray and give financially which enables us to be here. There was a recent international article that stated that the Philippines is the worst place in the world to live during the Pandemic, but we are […]

We have arrived!

July 25, 2021

Thank you all for praying for us. We arrived safely a week ago and just this morning we received the certificate for our negative Covid test and permission to finish our 14-day quarantine at home! We had friends pick us up and bring us to our house and buy us some fresh food. It is […]

Leaving on a Jet Plane

July 14, 2021

It is hard to believe that our short, rescheduled home assignment time has come to an end. Lord willing, we will fly to the Philippines this week. We have spent the last year wondering when we would be able to return to the Philippines while continuing to carry out our roles with Faith Academy here […]

Thankful for Changes and a Sovereign God

May 5, 2021

We are thankful for our short home assignment. Walter’s cataract surgery went well and he will be getting his new glasses soon. In April, we traveled to Florida and had a great time visiting friends and family. We made it back in time to attend Abby’s graduation on May 1. We still cannot believe that […]

But the LORD Directs Our Steps

February 15, 2021

Proverbs 16:9, “A man’s heart plans his way, but the LORD directs his steps.” We had planned to return to the Philippines first semester, but with the travel restrictions due to the COVID-19, we were not allowed. Then things started opening up and we were approved to return in January, but with the new CoronaVirus […]

God is not Surprised

January 11, 2021

It is after the New Year, and we are still here in the US. We thought we might be done with surprises, but I guess not. Just a few days before we were to fly to the Philippines, the Philippine government put a travel ban until January 15 to foreigners traveling from or through certain […]

Merry Christmas

December 26, 2020

Luke 2:10-11 – But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” It is exciting to be […]

Fall Blessings

Thank you for your continued prayers for us during this time. God continues to sustain us and remind us of His blessings and supreme control over all things. Thank you for your prayers for Walter’s hernia surgery. It went very well, and he was home before lunch, though he didn’t feel much like eating. His […]
