Giving Thanks

by Serena
Rejoice with us! The schoolbooks and supplies that we thought were lost have been found, expedited through customs in Lomé, and delivered to Mango! We have to laugh at God’s timing. The second order that was placed after all hope seemed lost arrived in Mango on Friday, November 3rd. The first order that was placed...CONTINUE READING

Ally’s Senior Photos

by Serena
It hardly seems possible that our Ally Grace is a senior in high school! She has grown into such a fun, compassionate, smart, athletic, musically gifted, hard working and godly young person. We could not be more proud of her! She is still making some difficult decisions about what life will look like next year....CONTINUE READING

The Ups and Downs

by Serena
It is hard to put into words all the events and emotions of the last month.  We have experienced some very high highs and some very low lows.  We have seen God’s faithfulness through it all. Sierra and the War in Israel: Two week ago, while the IBEX students were touring Petra in the country...CONTINUE READING

Volleyball in Togo

by Serena
On Saturday afternoons at 4 o’clock there is a volleyball club that meets for a couple of hours for some friendly competition. Marc and Ally have participated a couple of times and really enjoyed it! The rules of volleyball are pretty universal, so even though we lack a common language it has been a fun...CONTINUE READING

Going to Market

by Serena
Going to the “marche” is always an adventure! There are no grocery stores in Mango. All of our shopping is done at roadside stands, in little boutiques, and at the market. The market is the equivalent of a city block, filled with tents and makeshift stands. You can buy everything from wheelbarrows to bananas…but you...CONTINUE READING

We made it to Mango!

by Serena
We left Idaho on August 30th and arrived safely in Lome on the 31st. We traveled from Washington DC with the Wreesman family, who helped us navigate customs upon arrival, and then spent the first two days in the capital city purchasing supplies to bring up to Mango. Our drive up north took about 10...CONTINUE READING

The Final Countdown

by Serena
If the Lord wills, one month from today we will be disembarking from an Ethiopian Airlines flight in Lomé, the capital city of Togo. This will mark the fulfillment of nine months of praying, soul-searching, seeking counsel, applying to ABWE, field training, planning, and support-raising. At this time last year, we were just welcoming our...CONTINUE READING

Cleared for Take-Off

by Serena
We have seen God do some incredible things over the last month! Things that literally bring us to tears as we marvel over the goodness and provision of our Jehovah Jireh! Although we are still at 75% of our monthly support requirements, we have received enough one-time gifts that ABWE gave us “FINANCIAL CLEARANCE” for...CONTINUE READING

Living In Limbo

by Serena
We are living in the tension between two worlds … trying desperately to get to a place we have never been before, while making the most of the place where God has us now. We are anxious to finalize our plans for our move to Togo and to begin our new ministry as teachers to the MKs...CONTINUE READING

Building A Support Team

by Serena
It has been six weeks since we were officially appointed by ABWE to teach the missionary kids in Mango, Togo. These weeks have been very busy with pre-field online training, making contacts, ordering prayer cards, and setting up opportunities to share with churches and individuals about the wonderful things that God is doing in Togo. ...CONTINUE READING

Prayer & Praise

  • The skin grafts on Marc's ear and nose continue to heal. We are thankful that the pathology reports indicated that almost all of the margins were clear. There is still a small area of the ear that we will need to keep under observation. Part of our summer plans will be to visit a dermatologist.
  • Marc will have the opportunity to preach several times (in English!) at our missionary church services during the month of February. Pray that God would speak through him to encourage our team.
  • Please continue to pray for the Bible Institute here in Mango. Each month there is a weeklong class module. Christology and soteriology are the next two topics of study. The first group of students will graduate from the three-year program this September. Pray that these men and women will be strong leaders who desire to teach others also.
