Winter needs

Winter needs

December 31, 2020

If you’re reading this, you probably know that we’re heading back to the midwest US in January (yeah, question our sanity now). Because we’re coming from a perpetually tropical climate, our kids will be arriving to freezing Chicago in sandals and shorts. We’re hoping to collect some hand-me-down clothing that could be waiting at our […]

Breaking Down Barriers

June 4, 2020

I started writing this post a while ago*, I’ve been reflecting on barriers Jesus had to work out in me before I’d budge and come to the foreign mission field. Right now, Papua New Guinea has quite a few roles that need to be filled. Teachers for when the school can open again, skilled tech […]

What or Where is home?

What or Where is home?

October 1, 2018

We now have 2 full days left in Papua New Guinea before we head for a short home assignment back “home” in the U.S. And it’s exciting!* Wait, is that home? For 37 years, I called the Great Lakes area home. That’s changed now, not just across town or to a neighboring state, but to […]

Sometimes you need to reconnect

Sometimes you need to reconnect

May 27, 2018

It’s that time of year again, when the school year ends and many of the support workers who serve at the school go back to their home countries for a well-deserved rest. Some families are returning to their home countries to get their graduating senior settled into their new school, while some of us remain […]

We recently received an update from the team in Wantakia. They’ve done an excellent job in telling the 5 reasons they’re here, why we’re all here, and it’s well worth sharing. You can read more about this team working with the Wantakia on their blog: http://www.reachwantakia.com/team-blog/

Somewhat Suffering Missionary

February 15, 2018

“We’re suffering here,” Bill joked over the phone to the pastor from our home church, as he described the late December* weather here in Papua New Guinea. We were having another 85 degree day, while our home state of Wisconsin was getting snow again. Bill was sharing about our life and work here, and highlighted […]

Working cross-culturally

Working cross-culturally

November 13, 2017

Coming to the field, we expected to be working cross-culturally. After all, we’d be living in a country not our own, with the PNG people who live and think differently from us. Living among them, learning the PNG language, and discovering cultural differences came as no surprise to us. What is catching me off guard […]

April 17, 2017

As I mentioned in our update letter, we’d have a video here and quite a few pictures to share with ya’ll! The last 2 months have been a time of adjustment and learning for our family. Most of the pictures speak for themselves, so I’ll let them do what they do best! Aute is our […]

I ate the kids!

I ate the kids!

March 15, 2017

…or the less fun title, “Fun with language learning!” There’s a lot of fun phrases in Tok Pisin, one of my favorites is “Mi lusim ting ting!” Literally it means “I lost thought” and is used to say “I forgot.” About eating the kids — no we haven’t eaten any kids, ours or anyone else’s. […]
