🌸Happy Mother’s Day!🌸 I was only able to get a picture with the girls because Sammy is sick today. Soon I will take a picture with my boys. They were all feeling bad that they couldn’t get me anything for Mother’s Day. There are no stores nearby…but I already have everything I want. For fiveContinue reading “🌸Happy Mother’s Day!🌸”

May They See A Difference
“A lot of people told me, ‘You’re going to miss out on SO much!’ But I don’t feel like we’re missing out on anything!” Anna sat beside me on the front porch and shared this with me. I am extremely thankful that my kids don’t feel like they are missing out or being deprived becauseContinue reading “May They See A Difference”
A Spiritual Battle
We were in the middle of our Wednesday night lesson, when suddenly we saw Eric and Pastor Nelson running out of the church toward us. “Move the kids! Move the kids!” They yelled. “There’s a snake!” We quickly moved the kids. A snake slithered into the church during the preaching. Eric was sitting across fromContinue reading “A Spiritual Battle”
The Lord Had a Reason

From the Mouths of Babes
Internet is frequently poor, which is why I can’t always post weekly. I usually type out what I’m going to say ahead of time and then when I get it to work, quickly copy and paste. If I still have internet, I can reply to some comments and messages. I have noticed at times thatContinue reading “From the Mouths of Babes”

Just Doing the Same Things
April 4, 2023 “Practical missionary life is an unexciting thing. It is not sparkling all over with incident. It is very prosaic at times.” ~Amy Carmichael I’m currently reading through Amy Carmichael books and I always seem to find a quote stating my recent thoughts, though she puts it much more eloquently. The routine, schedule…everythingContinue reading “Just Doing the Same Things”
Kids With Machetes
March 29, 2023 Something interesting always happens on Saturday visitation. This past week when we were visiting in Phokera, Shadrick was witnessing to two men. A little boy, 7 at the most, was in the background. He casually picked up what looked like bamboo, but much wider than any I’ve seen. Next, he grabbed aContinue reading “Kids With Machetes”
Taking Out Worms
March 24, 2023 I think I must make more mistakes in a language than is humanly thought possible! My most recent ones involve the video about running water the kids recently made. When I was filming them run across the yard with buckets of water, the workers began gathering to watch in amusement. I triedContinue reading “Taking Out Worms”
Why Art Thou Cast Down?
March 19, 2023 Sometimes the difference in customs of a place can be so hard to us! We just finished singing a song in Sunday School when I heard what sounded like a mob chanting/singing. I thought maybe they were storming the church! Brother Shadrick told me they were marching a thief to the police,Continue reading “Why Art Thou Cast Down?”
