No doubt many of you are asking for updates. Trust me friends, communication is very, very, very limited as they tend to Lincoln and take turns sleeping. I told Dw and Emma last night that I am quite certain it is harder to be here in some ways because I have zero clue what is…

Lincoln Tendo

May 4, 2019 Linny Saunders7 Comments

Lincoln continues to need our intercession and prayer. This Mimi has written much about the power of fasting and it is sprinkled throughout eleven years of writing Place Called Simplicity. I actually began fasting as a young girl, probably about 9 or 10 years old because I read my Bible every day and saw that…

There are four blog posts in the works but in my heart of hearts I just can’t post any of them. There are some circumstances that several close friends around us are facing which makes it a very difficult season deep in our souls as we watch them walk through each of them. Bearing one…

While in Uganda, several times Dw texted me and said, “Hurry home babe!! Let’s get this adventure underway!” In case you missed it, here’s the post where I share what God has been up to through one man’s courageous story and how our lives will never, ever be the same!! So now that I’m home…

“I Don’t Wanna'”

I have to share a story of something that happened with our sweet Jubilee recently. Now I realize the thought of adopting a “lifer” is scary to many. The picture of empty-nesting, carefree travel and retirement can sound so luring, appealing and divine. But friends, every day I say to myself, “I could have missed…

No doubt our nation was devastated to see the news of the Orlando massacre. Thinking of the precious lives, deeply loved by God, who were senselessly killed, who can imagine?

The adoption world is small, all things considered. And I come to you humbly asking to join me in prayer and fasting for a little cherub, just home from China. Meet E. Adopted just a few months ago. Is she not the sweetest little treasure? Eisley’s heart was very, very sick and she had…

As Though We Were With Them….

The last few months the kids and I have been studying the book of Acts together. We take a few verses each day and talk at length about them. I have read Acts many times over the years, but this time I was struck in a new way. “And behold, an angel of the Lord…

The Storm Clouds are Circling….

If the storm clouds that were rolling in now appear to have no wind to push them out of the area… Or the mountains you’ve been eyeing seem to be growing… Or you can’t see the trees for the forest…. Or the dreams you thought you were about to live out have just evaporated before…

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14 Thank you to each of you my friends who are joining…
