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 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 […]

December 20-24, 2016: 400 miles from Fairbanks to Grayling…and back! Aaaand just for fun, since it’s -40* at the time of this posting…

Above photo: 9:30a sunrise over the Yukon River. This view is from upstairs in the missionary house, down the street to the river. The lighted building on the left is the Tribal Hall. A little peek into what our surroundings in the village are, followed by pics of airplane adventures, all from our time in […]
