Thursday, March 22: Due to needed Outside travel, it’s been two seasons since we’ve been out to Grayling. All 7 of us – winter-geared up (shoehorn, anyone?) – squeeze into the Piper Lance for the 2.5-hour flight to the Lower Yukon region. Thankful for a clear day below freezing, a tailwind, and a friend to […]
Last month, we sent an email to our supporters about Eugene Cup’aq Stevens and his need for help with college tuition. We were amazingly blessed to see all $3,300 for his remaining tuition for the year supplied in just a few short weeks! Below is a letter of thanks from him: “Dear friends of my […]
Always wish we could post more, but here’s one snapshot of our travels! Millers from Alaska cooking the Minica’s Texas venison at the Lu’s in California. Ah…Bible Bee-ness! (Also realized while eating it: it was our first self-cooked meal eaten alone as a family in the ~45 days since we left on this excursion.)
Imagine getting to load up scads of kiddos and chaperones to get a mouse’s-eye view of what we get to do in this amazing corner of the world! Well, that’s kind of what we got to do this summer when a church in the Midwest asked us to make a video for them about our […]
During our September trip to Grayling, not only were we able to see the church building repaired to the point of being able to meet in it (another post!), but God provided the opportunity to hunt. Our friend Marvin volunteered to be our captain and guide, taking us up the Yukon River, across the Yukon […]
As we are wrapping up harvest and doing final prep on the property to be buttoned up for winter, here’s a quick review of this summer’s highlights! We are so thankful for God’s faithfulness seen in the ability to grow food and for His blessings as progress was made on the house. This summer, we […]
As it happened, on our last trip home from Grayling two days ago last month, we decided to make a fuel stop in Unalakleet. James had come to the realization that avgas was $3/gallon cheaper there than anywhere else between Grayling and Fairbanks, and that it would only add 20 minutes to a straight-home flight. […]
As thoughts and materials are starting to pile up to begin the next round of summer projects, it occurs to me that I haven’t ever documented the progress made on the homeplace during last summer’s race with the calendar. Sometimes we’ll get comments that imply that, perhaps since so much time has passed we just […]
These are the young people that encourage our children – in person and online; the friends that they pray with, study the Bible and discuss life with, chat and laugh with. Because we know and have seen the passion each of these 72 young people has for knowing God and His Word and making Him […]
