I’ve seen so much of God’s faithfulness in the local people here in these past few weeks. In some ways, the pace of ministry has slowed down a bit, as happens from time to time, but one of the frequent conversations has covered the idea that “maybe we’ve just become adjusted to this as the …
Do y’all remember the time when you had no concept of this season of time of this global… weirdness? *My attempt not to use the dreaded word that’s in every post and conversation lately.

Woah, woah, woah. It’s been almost seven months since I posted an update here?? It’s crossed my mind many times – once I even opened up my draft and placed a few words on the page. I’ve been working to write monthly private emails with details and photos about life here in the Philippines, my …
