Family news and Korea

October 8, 2015

This week we are enjoying a break in our regular routine. We have 10 days off from school so Walter and I have been enjoying some time together without the pressures of school. The last two days of last week was parent/teacher conferences. Walter had a few meetings with parents as well. Abby is also […]

Summer in the US

July 5, 2015

Our time in the US is going by quickly. We are so thankful for our time here. We see that it is God’s timing that we were able to be in the US this summer for a few weeks. We were greeted by some of our family and our grandson, Lucas. It has been fun […]

School has Begun

July 31, 2014

We have been in the Philippines now for two weeks. We arrived a day after the typhoon came. Our house was fine with the exception of a couple of small large bushes that were down and our phone line is still not working. We were fortunate to have power when we arrived. But the next […]

Final Days

July 15, 2014

Lamentations 3:22b-23, “…his compassions fail not. 23They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. As I write this, we are traveling back to Wichita. We had a great time visiting with friends and family on our way to Wisconsin. On Saturday, we enjoyed a God-honoring wedding, celebrating the union of our son, Paul, with […]

June Praises

June 24, 2014

Psalm 50:15, “Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me;” or another translation states: Trust me in your times of trouble, and I will rescue you, and you will give me glory.” Thank you for praying for us! We have had an exciting week. We have […]

Grace

June 5, 2014

2 Corinthians 9:8, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.” While we are on our home assignment, we often hear from people: “I could never be a missionary!” But then after talking with them […]

Answers to Prayer!

May 7, 2014

Psalm 23:1 “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Ps. 23 was in my daily reading last night and it struck me that “I have everything I need.” (Ps.23:1 in NLT) When I wrote last month, we had collected about $3000 in our outgoing expenses the whole year. Outgoing expenses includes tickets, vehicle […]

My God shall supply

April 4, 2014

Phil. 4:19, “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” We all know this is true, but sometimes our situation clouds our thinking. For example, it is easier to trust God when you have a healthy savings and pay role; but when both are small and […]

CHRISTMAS, CHAPELS, AND MORE

February 18, 2014

Christmas came and went way too quickly, but we thoroughly enjoyed our time with friends and family, especially with our adult children. Ben and Jessica were able to spend eight days with us, and our college-aged kids were with us for 24 days; we can’t express how thankful we are for those days. Plus our […]

Spicers’ Goals

October 4, 2013

Our home assignment is flying by, as we have been in the US for three months already. In our last letter we mentioned that we purchased a minivan and were looking at houses. After much prayer and asking advice, we are excited to say that we purchased a beautiful home near Wichita, KS. We are […]
