One of the great benefits our mission offers us is the option to send a crate of our stuff from the U.S. to our new overseas home. Over two years ago we carefully packed, labeled, and obsessed over our stuff. The allowance was judged by size, not weight, so we put the heaviest things in [...]

It is so refreshing to be around our guys again now that they are back for about a week from a trip. They are pretty impressive, dedicated people and we are honored to know them. Anyway, enough mushiness. Here is a little bit about their last trip.
During this trip they were able to tell several [...]

Our guys recently got back from a trip. So Trent has meetings with them all day and then tonight we have church at our house. It will be so good to all be back together again. It has been a while since we’ve been able to worship and share together. It makes me tired just [...]
