Nearing The End
Hello everyone! We’re all SO sorry for the lack in updates the last 2 months. This trip has by far been the most _________ (fill in the blank with whatever would make it impossible for you to keep your head on straight). It has been difficult, challenging, stressful, and frustrating, among other things, but it […]
And we know that ...
Hello everyone! It’s that time of year again, which means that there is a team in the Philippines already working hard to prepare tutorial kits as well as visiting local congregations and facilitating one-on-one Bible studies (with 1 baptism already so far!). We have a lot scheduled this trip, with quite a few members (21!) […]
Update
Let me go back a notch or two…..while we were in Davao, we prepared for a Teacher’ Appreciation Dinner. We wanted to give recognition and encouragement to our present tutorial teachers but at the same time introduce the new congregations and teachers that will be recipients of the 2015-16 Tutorial Kits. We shared some comments and […]
Only 2 1/2 weeks ...
Hello all! We have been very busy (of course!) preparing the tutorial kits to be given to 5 local congregations this year.

Once […]

Our mission trip ...
As we entered into the last week of our trip, we realized how many “loose ends” we must tie up before leaving. The girls worked diligently on all the details of the “Missing Link Kits”. They printed off copies of all the booklets, they collated the pages, they punched the holes and then they bound […]
Time to catch up ...
Greetings to each one of you. I thought for sure that I would get this blog completed before leaving the Philippines, but with everything on the schedule….it just didn’t get done. I have two more weeks to report on, so I will do one week this go round and in a couple of days I […]
