Remember

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.


These are two of my favorite verses.  I remember these often. Especially now as we wonder where our life is going. I wonder what people hold onto when they do not have the Word of God in their life.  In America we are privileged to have many types of Bibles to read and understand what God is saying to us. It is not that way for 350 million people in the world. Some may have no Bible, others have it in a language not clear to them.

God has called us to go to Papua New Guinea.  Our plan is to leave the first of August so we can start our orientation there August 8th.  However a lot of things need to come together prior to that. The first item is we have to be fully funded to go.  Wycliffe is a faith based organization.  We are looking for individuals who will come along side us and be part of our ministry by supporting us financially.  This needs to be done consistently(monthly, quarterly, annually).  This is our pay check as we give our skills of nursing and telephone work to assist translators. We can not go until we get the gifts.  As soon as we do we can buy our plane tickets!  Please feel free to contact us with question.
