Return to Lichinga, Mozambique




We are in Lichinga, Mozambique and are doing well. We’ve been unpacking, cleaning our house, getting the home school room prepared for this year, and adjusting to having a walking one-year old in the house.

We thank all of you who made our time in the U.S. truly special. You touched our hearts with love, and even in brief comments; so many of you encouraged our hearts and opened our eyes to see more of the beauty of the Lord’s work in Lichinga and all of Mozambique. We thank you so much for making our time in the U.S. unforgettable, filled with surprises and full of God’s love. You are so special to us.

(A special note goes out to all of those at our church family, Church of the Living God in Manchester, CT from Tiffany: I so much appreciated seeing all of you, even if we only got to chat once or exchange a smile of greeting during our time in the states. You don’t know how much it means to know that we have a church family back in the states praying for us, thinking of us and supporting us with love and prayer! We so appreciate you!)

Wow! We’ve Got Wheels
Our good God did it again. Last week, we purchased a Nissan Terrano 4X4 truck from another missionary who left the country. It’s a 5 seater, with 2 additional fold down seats in the rear that give ample storage room when folded up. Last year, one of our prayer partners sent us a green toy truck saying that she believed that our truck would be green. Well, our Nissan is dark green. Thank all of you who prayed and believed God with us, and supported us to help make this possible. We praise God for the means to advance in ministry, and for greater opportunity to travel together as a family.

Continue to Pray for Mozambique and Us
There’s nothing better than to go “lower still” as Heidi Baker, co-founder of Iris Ministries puts it. Our hearts are on fire, aflame with Jesus’ love that is drawing us ever lower in Christ-like humility. We are less dependent on our selves, but in full expectancy of what Jesus can do in our lives and ministry. Pray with us, believe with us, contend with us as we seek God to fill Lichinga with His presence. We just want more of you, Jesus!




Our truck. Hallelujah!
