Well, that’s enough of giving things away for a while – it’s time to get back to what we’re all about: Missionary Blogs!

But did you know that missionary bloggers are always giving things away?  They’re taking the time to share their lives with you, and share with you about what God is doing!

So let’s look at a few recent posts:

If I want to feed my family… and other reflections

by Jim on 18 August 2010

in Interesting Posts

It doesn’t matter.  If you’re a missionary from Kenya to Egypt, or a missionary from Japan to Canada, or a missionary from the USA to Ecuador.  There are challenges.  Things to get used to.  Surprises.

Here are some of the experiences missionary bloggers have been through lately.  For example, this blogger in Niger laments If I want to feed my family… …I have to go grocery shopping.

Speaking of groceries – spotted in Thailand was the Sausage-Cake Sandwich.  Full pictures provided in case you want to check your local grocery store.

And a day of adventure in Senegal – yes, it’s Caca water!

All right, I’m glad that’s over.  But… wait!  Danger looms ahead!  This time, not from roaming the country, but from blogging — as seen in this Disclaimer in Peru.  Yes, always remember – the world is reading your blog!

Finally, some peace.  A good report on a concluded Bible study – A SWEET ENDING in Bolivia.

Quick fact of the day from Taiwan:  Early Christian Influence on Asian Buddhism

And finally, some reminders to pray.  First, out of Honduras, challenging times:  Praise and thanks for prayer.  And an incredible post from Paraguay – Thoughts on a Funeral.  Not only will you learn about missions, and Paraguay, you’ll learn about God’s grace.
