The work goes on
Wendy:
Expansion/Bible studies growing
First of all praise God for the expansions in the work here in Palawan. God opened up the way last Sabbath to add another Bible study group in the area near our land and we have both Bible studies and children's programs led by local SDA church members now. THEN, we just found [...]
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 [...]
News from the New Year
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 [...]

Helicopter excitement; training new nurses
Dwayne: God has been good to us these past weeks. I finally got our flat-bed trailer finished and made a back bumper for our pickup so we can pull the trailer. Wendy has been training the new student missionaries into the clinic.
I had an interesting Sunday a week ago. I had to take a seriously [...]
It’s official
Wendy: It's great being back "home" in the mountains and having a wonderful husband to share things with now! As soon as we got here, Dwayne went to work right away on our hut and within a couple days he had a place for our bed (so we wouldn't have to put it up every [...]
