“Homes” for the holidays
Dear friends and family,
We're wrapping up a most wonderful time of busyness and fun! Besides a couple trips to Balabac for medical evacuations and a medical mission to Abo Abo, most of our time has been spent working on the houses. With lots of help from friends and God we were able to get both [...]
Missionary life
Dwayne:
The hanger construction has been going well. We poured the second apartment roof last night. I learned Filipinos can work twice as fast at night than they can in the day. We got the second roof poured in 6 hours instead of 11 like the first one. It is a relief to have [...]

Change is good
Wendy: It's a monumental occasion. My mountain life days are coming to an end. It's with mixed emotions to leave my life of 5 years in my quaint bamboo/grass roof hut, in the beautiful mountainous, peaceful setting. I am very excited about this new life and our growing ministry, though, I cannot deny it, but [...]

Dwayne: These last few weeks have been eventful for us. The day before Christmas we went up to Puerto to take care of a few things, and then on Christmas day Wendy's parents flew down from Manila to visit. We drove a little ways north on Palawan and across the island to Port Barton. It [...]
