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, […]

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.
