Mexico!

Camp

After approximately 3700 miles, way too much hot sauce, and not enough sleep, John safely made it back from Mexico.

He visited the camp where some of our students will spend some time practicing what they have learned at our Mission Training Center, particularily in the areas of language learning and culture.

This will be the first time this part of our training happens in Mexico. There are yet many details to work out, so your prayers are much appreciated!

A different kind of project

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

The project I am painting is a small mural on each side of the door that leds into NTM’s TECH CENTER.

 

 

Tech Center BEFORE PAINTING IS STARTED BEFORE

The Tech Center is quite a place! Their goal is to train missionaries to manage the physical aspects of living in remote locations. That means learning about water filtration, lightning protection, solar panels, and hydrodynamics. You can imagine how difficult it would be to figure all this out on your own. Often the Tech Center custom designs and assembles the equipment used in these unique living conditions. And if a missionary has technical problems, the Tech Center gives advice. I’m sure their email box is full everyday from questions around the world!
