Just a few posts I’ve enjoyed lately…

  • Madagascar From Tulear:  It’s been a long time since I had to do so many things by candlelight.  I can remember struggling to do my homework during power cuts due to strikes back in the 1970s, trying to read by the light of a paraffin lamp when we lived in Ivory Coast in the 1980’s and 1990s.  Right now I’m in southern Madagascar…
  • Puerto Rico Two different Suicide Attempts Makes for a Stressful Week:  ”I am going to kill myself” sobbed Carlos, as he pulled out a pocket knife, opened it and put it on the table between us,”And I am going to use that knife.”  He grabbed his head and moaned…
  • Cambodia community life:  There’s been a lot of things about the culture in Cambodia that I’ve had to get used to since I moved here.  Whilst it has often been a challenge to my western cultural thinking, it has been great to get to know a little of how Khmer people live and their view of the world…

  • Ecuador The 7 sweet things that awaited us in Ecuador:  While these little bunnies were a cute surprise, the greatest surprise that awaited us was two new girls showing up at church this week.  They are from the family that another church member had noticed as a new family in Sacha Runa…

  • Kenya Unforgettable:  Tonight, I went to the children’s home to share with the children about my leaving.  I had shared in church yesterday, but with the service having been more than 3 hours long, I wasn’t sure if they had really heard when my time came to share…

Pilots, mechanics, families, ground crew… missionary aviation is a big job with all kinds of different aspects.  The deserts of Africa, the jungles of Mexico, the tundra of northern Canada – airplanes are flying all over the place to bring relief supplies, to connect friends and family, and to bring the light of the Gospel.

Short visit to Mexico

3 April 2007

It seems like there have been a lot of blogs springing up in Mexico in recent days.  It’s hard to keep up with.
For example, you may be familiar with .:. The Harer’s live journal.  Ken Harer sent me Deborah’s blog, called “All children, except one, grow up.” Don’t you love that title?  Deborah is short [...]
