Arielle and Nanny

Nanny, a fellow believer who is 96 years old was a little confused last week as she said she was going to get out of her wheel chair and walk to her home four blocks away.  The only problem is the nursing home is on a country road and there are no blocks.  To say the least she was confused.  However, she did remember that her true home is in heaven and that is never going to change for eternity.  (more…)

Over and over through the night I kept pulling the sleeping bag over my head to keep my nose from protruding into the fridged air.  Despite this chilly weather both Arielle and I slept great and had a surprisingly relaxing weekend.  You may be wondering what is this all about? (more…)

Arielle labeling

What have we been up to?  We are staying busy with classes, outreach, church, and work detail.  On arriving we were both excited to find out we are on the same work detail crew.  Our crew is called general maintenance/carpentry. (more…)

Every couple days we venture into Dobu land where music echoes through the air and smoke often catches our noses off guard.  There are six on our team who all huddle around a little hut to learn all we can from our very own Dobu language helper (picture to left).  He teaches us about his culture and teaches us his language.  Sometimes he has no explanation and says, “Its just the Dobu way.”

You may still be wondering what is this “Dobu” you are talking about? (more…)
