As many of you know I have had the tremendous blessing of living in missionary housing at my church during my time in the US. Having a safe, comfortable, beautiful place to call my temporary home while on furlough has been amazing. One of the added benefits is that my church family knows exactly whereContinue reading “Drop Offs and Pop ins”

Last Day on the Road
As you read this myself and my trusty car (should have given her a name) are hopefully on the last day of driving our long cross country journey from North Carolina to California and back again. I appreciate your prayers for safety on this final day and thought you would enjoy some stats from theContinue reading “Last Day on the Road”
God of Creation
As I continue my travels throughout the US I am amazed by The God who created all of this beauty and diversity. I have always loved nature, but after becoming a believer and learning about God who created the heavens and earth, mountains and sea as well as all creatures great and small everything becameContinue reading “God of Creation”
Windshield Time with God
I am on the road and enjoying time with Ministry partners, friends and family as well as a little bit of sight seeing and a lot of “windshield time” with God. The long driving days provide hours of quiet for prayer and conversations with God which is wonderful. I have also been able to listenContinue reading “Windshield Time with God”
“Planning”
Anyone else a “planner” and struggling a little (or a lot) with that lately? I know God is in control, I know His plans are so much greater and better than anything I can even think of, but I also know He made me this way. So, I strive to pray a lot, submit myContinue reading ““Planning””
Freedom
Freedom is a word I don’t think about very often and honestly I take it for granted.

On a regular basis here and in The Gambia I get asked where is “home” or where I came from? Well, that is a really good question with many answers…. I call my US home base North Carolina, I was born and raised in California, the closest thing I have to a home dwelling /Continue reading “Home”
On the Road Again
Long ago, before Covid hit I was praying about and preparing for my furlough time in the US and planning a lot of travel throughout the US. Well, Covid definitely changed all of that and many of my travels have been changed, cancelled or postponed. Recently I have been able to get back on theContinue reading “On the Road Again”
Slips, Trips and Falls
Ok, for those of you who know me you are probably chuckling about this title since I tend to be a little accident prone. Don’t worry, I do not have a new injury and I am recovering well from my existing ones. As I was reading in Proverbs 4 this morning about focusing on theContinue reading “Slips, Trips and Falls”
Saying Yes
Over the last several weeks God has provided many opportunities for me to connect with ministry partners and share with many new people about not only the Lord’s work in The Gambia, but also my journey with the Lord and to serving Him overseas. Throughout these great conversations one theme resonates, “Just Say YES! MyContinue reading “Saying Yes”
