“When Are You Going to Vanuatu?”,

seems to be a very common question these days. The fact of the matter is, only God knows. We won’t get there a moment sooner, or a moment later than He determines. It is very comforting to know God is in control of every detail. Of course, we are anxious to get to the field but we also know it would be foolish to go under-prepared. Therefore it has been our prayer that the Lord would guide us in the preparations that would be necessary for the work in Vanuatu to succeed for His glory. Along those lines, it appears as though the Lord may be opening some doors in the way of a missions internship. If this is indeed what the Lord has in store for us it would mean some big changes, the least of which is leaving our home in Montana. Needless to say, we would be grateful for you to join us in prayer for God's guidance and clarity. This is not yet for certain, but we are willing to follow wherever the Lord would lead. We are also praying about a possibility for in-depth linguistics and translation training. Once again, please pray with us for God’s clear leading. We know that when we trust Him with all our hearts and lean not on our own understanding, and when in all our ways we acknowledge Him, He will direct our path.


On the Road

For quite some time we have been anticipating a trip to our home state of Washington to spend time with family and connect with supporters. With the possible upcoming changes, rather than have to put the trip off altogether, we thought it would be best to move it up a bit. So we're off! We will be in Washington for most of the month of February. Pray with us for the Lord to bless this time we have with our families and also that He will provide many opportunities for us to share the mission to Vanuatu as we continue towards our goal of 100% support.


How are we doing on support?

As many of you know, 100% of our regular support needs must be met in order to be allowed to depart for the field. Biblical Ministries Worldwide is a faith based organization, fully relying on God to supply for the needs of His missionaries. It has been a blessing to see God work through His people, supplying support from the most unlikely places! We are trusting Him to supply in His time.

In addition the financial support we have a goal of 500 committed prayer partners who will battle with us in prayer, for our family and this ministry, on a regular basis. If you would like to be a part of this prayer team email us and let us know!

The Lord will provide!
