Only God Could Do This…

This GO Team trip had something happen  that has left us giggling from the absurdity of it all. The other day we were out in the village ministering  that International Voice of the Orphan  has served. So this particular day we had helped do wash, later playing games, had lunch,  then had a sweet time of sharing…

Working Hard….

These ladies are amazing and have been working hard. They’ve seen more in the last few days then they could have ever imagined. I’m so grateful for each of them. They are prayer warriors and have made such an impact already! We have been blessed. Next GO Team dates will be posted soon on our…

The Load

The picture above is common in Uganda. Large items balanced on skinny bike tires  that were certainly never meant for carrying  such heavy, bulky and gangly loads.  No doubt, the carrier of the goods must work  tediously to balance  with precision the weight of each load. I have marveled for years at the industrious internal…

Many Hands…

Today we headed  to lend a hand with whatever needed to be done… Auntie Emma visits often and they were  thrilled she had arrived! The second they saw our vehicle they were  jumping up and down. Had I known their response, I would have  tried to video them… They are all lovable little treasures. Their…

Their Voice

After spending the day in the slums serving at  International Voice of the Orphan‘s  Frontlines+ Feeding program,  only one thought echoed from each of the team {shared with tears and much emotion} “We will never, ever be the same again…”  Because beautiful treasures came… to play games…. to relax… to be told how precious they are…

“Weak Made Strong”

Maybe you’re feeling rather weak today.   I know the feeling. Of course, we all know “weak” can mean physically.   It can also mean emotionally or spiritually. There is a powerful song that our church worship team  does every so often.  I think it just might be  my most favorite worship song these days….

Bear With Me…

Since my treasures and grandtreasures are only home a  couple of times each year, y’all are just gonna’ have to bear with me… I can’t help myself.   Hang out with us for a few minutes and you’ll totally see why I’m so hopelessly smitten… Making cards for our family’s  most favorite missionary *ever*. People…

Finally the Baby Boy Arrives

Finally, finally, finally. The day we’ve waited and waited for. Last night, after a six hour delay their plane arrived. Mimi and Jaja and all the kids got to meet Stone Wolfer our newest grandtreasure  for the very first time… Today has been filled with laughter and baby boy snuggles and sponge water bombs  a…

Gettin’ *It* All Ready…

Remember a few months back? A call was put out to help build an orphanage {click here to read it} for the treasures who are part of IVO’s Frontlines+ feeding  program because one of the little treasures had had his  bandaged finger eaten off by a rat as he slept? After the need was made known, many, many, …
