Call for Prayer

Next week I will be traveling back to a restricted access country to assist in the graduation and commissioning of this year's batch of Calvary Bible Institute graduates. Many of these graduates will immediately go on to start their own churches. Actually I will be going back to "Nevada" and also to a neighboring country. This unnamed country is not as restrictive as Nevada as it is technically a constitutional monarchy. For security reasons I think it best that I keep my travel details secret at this time.

What is no secret is the power of prayer, and I keep saying, it is the difference maker. Please pray for my trip to these countries, and also pray for my family while I am gone. I never enjoy being away from them, please pray that they are safe and well during my absence. Also pray for my travels, that myself and the team would stay under the radar of the secret police.

Departing

Leaping off the Leadership Development post, I have some somewhat sad news. Chris and the kids will be leaving for the States this Saturday. They leave for Manila on Friday, and then fly onward to the States on Saturday, arriving in Baltimore around midnight (Maryland time) Saturday evening. Why is this sad? My responsibilities with the internship require me to say in Iloilo until the internship is completed. I will be returning to the States March 23. We have never been apart as a family for so long. Honestly I am very much not looking forward to being away from my family. I am not looking at this as a "break" from my kids so I can finally do some "real ministry." I am willing to fulfill my responsibilities here in Iloilo, especially as it involves training future full-time missionaries. However, I am not at all looking forward to being apart from my most favorite people in the world. The reason why Chris needs to leave for the States at this time is beca...

Dude, the Philippines is hot! I sit here typing this, and sweat drips off my arms. Bright and early in the morning, around 8:30, when the sun is high enough, it is already 95 degrees. Coming out from under the shade the sun is like a hammer, especially in the afternoons. I take about three showers a day, to rinse the sticky, thin film of sweat off my skin. While we are used to these kinds of temperatures in the States, what we also have in the States is the constant presence of air conditioners everywhere we go--in our cars, homes, places of business, etc. Not so here in the Philippines. We do have air conditioners in our home here in the Philippines, but honestly we hardly ever run them. Thankfully our family has gotten used to the heat. While it can get oppressive at times, especially when doing any kind of manual labor or lifting, for the most part the heat does not bother us. Even at night, we are now accustomed to sleeping with just a fan, even with the heat and humidity....
