Over the past week our family and friends have been talking about what God taught us in 2019 and what we are looking forward to God doing in 2020. It was easy for me to come up with an answer, although not as easy for me to say it out loud. This past year was […]
I have so many questions about prayer. I would imagine that we all do in some way or another. The past two years have been filled with questions as I deal with loss, disappointment, and questioning how God plays a part in it all. Can prayers really change the outcome of a dire situation? Can […]
This past week has been one I never in a million years believed I would have to write about. I thought when I lost my son, Andrew, at 27 weeks only two years ago that I surely had a pass on heartache for a least a little while. And I never thought God would allow […]
We are all searching for the cure to something we are facing in this world… A child who has left this earth before the mother who was supposed to protect him. A parent gone from our lives before we are ready to no longer have the guidance and love we have always experienced. A sickness […]

It was born from that personal […]
Today was a day of relaxation and fun. We got to enjoy the water and beach before leaving the Dominican Republic. I often have to remind myself that even God and Jesus rested. It doesn’t come easily to me, but today was very nice. We started our day in town at the market. Michael wanted […]
We spent today on the mountain in Santa Elena. While I have loved every day here, this day blessed me beyond measure. Wonderful memories from this day doing God’s work! Yesterday we went to the store to buy food for several families. I bought food to take to two widows. The two HMM trucks were […]
It’s was a beautiful, hot day in the Dominican Republic with no clouds or rain like the two previous days. We went on a short ride to another community where HMM has a children’s church. We handed out the rest of the rice and beans that we packed to families in the community. We stopped […]
