David and Kristia Abbott your connection to tribal missions 
“You have been a miracle to my family. Not just my younger son and I, but my dad has started going to church and reading the Bible on a daily basis and contributes it to seeing the Lord working in me.
Discipleship in Jerusalem
What Katrina learned in Papua New Guinea
When I first started thinking about going over to Interface I honestly wasn’t really sure if I actually wanted to make the move and go overseas by myself. I was a little nervous about it, but I was really excited too.

Van died in Daytona
Cleaning our van out of all personal belongings.
Well, the time for retiring our van is past and we are now looking for a dog food factory.
Here’s the deal. We made it to the NTM annual beach retreat, but when we tried to move it – it became apparent that all forward gears had failed.
The house that Grandpa built
David and Kristia were able to attend the “Steeling the Mind” conference in Denver this past weekend. The sun was setting over the Rockies as they drove toward Olive Garden to celebrate Kristia’s birthday.
Retiring successfully
David giving a presentation in the Philippines in January 2005
This week we were able to successfully retire a Dell Latitude D600 notebook that had been been generously given to us by one of our loyal ministry partners.
The D600 was by far the best notebook we have ever owned. It came with a gold support 800 number that never had to be called. – Absolutely incredible, considering it was used almost daily to publish web content for New Tribes missionaries around the world for five years.
A week at NTM’s Missionary Training Center
David introduced the staff and students of NTM's Missionary Training Center to myMinistry blogs.
On Monday, David had the privilege of addressing the majority of NTM’s staff and students at the Missionary Training Center in Missouri. The newly released “myMinistry” blogs are being made available to students just arriving as well as New Tribes Mission staff and students around the world.

myMinistry Blogs released
“myMinistry blogs” for NTM members have been released and several related email messages are coming in each minute.
Water was running out of our garage when David left for work this morning. It looks like our date night will amount to a trip to fast-food on the way to the hardware store. This will be the third gas water heater in three years.
David has a trip coming up soon. Please pray for us. Life is pretty stressful right now.
Farewell to myMinistry websites
Tuesday, August 18 marks the end of one dream and the beginning of another. Five hundred aging websites David has been managing are going to emerge as very clean blogs with many more features.
Where Katrina is right now
As I write this, it is nearly dawn on Sunday morning in the Dinangat village where Katrina is visiting. We haven’t heard from her, but if the flight taking her in had not gone well we would have. NTM Aviation has an outstanding safety record.
The Dinangat people heard the Gospel just over a year ago, and two of the three New Tribes missionary families that are working among them are visiting friends, family and churches in their home countries. The family that is there and doing translation and literacy work with the people are Jeremiah and April Markley.
