Teaching

The 5/6th grade class

The 5/6th grade class

August 17th marked a new day for me.  It was my first official day of school…this time as the teacher.  About three weeks before school was to start the Field Comittee asked us if we would consider me putting Spanish study on hold to fill an urgent need in the school for missionary kids.  After praying about it, we said yes.  Three weeks later I had my first day with ten students.  Six fifth graders and four sixth graders.

We’re still a part of New Tribes Mission, that hasn’t changed.  This school is part of the mission orginaziation.  I tell the kids that I teach them because I love the Lord. 

There is a bigger picture here as there is no money involved for this “job”, just a greater goal of seeing the tribal man or woman reached with the gospel.  We are part of that picture, and so are you.

We are now “bloggers”…whatever that is.

I resisted the blogging wave, telling people it was just “one more thing” to update.  Our NTM website was an example of how much I disliked updating.  But NTM came to me!  They  have changed the website update to the blog style.  I’m hoping this will encourage more updates on our family and our ministry as a blog seems more like an open conversation, but only time will tell.  So welcome to our webpage, or is it a blog?
