Equipping Equippers

No we did not relocate to Latin America!

However, in 2021, a missionary's impact is not limited by geography.

We have been involved in the Go To Nations' Equipping Department for almost the entirety of our missionary career. We have done this by directing the Timothy Internship Program here in Asia. We are also the International Directors for the internship programs in the GTN world. Go To Nations is currently conducting the first post pandemic internship in Honduras. While Asia maintains a level of travel lockdown, other parts of the world are opening up.

Pictured below are the new interns with Jenice Hardester and Yolanda Ortega. Jenice is the internship director in Honduras and Yolanda is the assistant director. These are two missionaries we trained and mentored for several years when they were part of the GTN Asia team. Yolanda was our internship assistant director in Thailand. We continue to equip and train Jenice and Yolanda with regular online meetings, offering counsel, advice, and knowledge from our experience as they direct this internship. 

We will always be missionary equippers. We are blessed to now be raising up and equipping new equippers. The GTN Timothy Internship Program is a boot camp to train believers to become full time missionaries, we are a product of this internship. We know that these new interns will be changed, impacted and released to achieve their missionary destiny and calling.

You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go bear fruit, fruit that will last.
John 15:16

Changing Lives Who Will Change Nations

You may recall we have been directing missionary internships for 15 years. We recently completed the first ever Go To Nations (GTN) Timothy Internship Program in the United States (Jacksonville, FL). Five new missionaries were equipped and empowered, they have been filled up and are ready to be sent out!

Generations

Send More Workers, Lord! Go To Nations has a proven equipping track that has been empowering new missionaries to go to the nations (see what I did there?) since the 1980's. Dave and I have been a part of serving with the Equipping Division for the past 15 years.

Balaan Bukid, Guimaras

This being Maundy Thursday we decided to join the pilgrims here in Iloilo and visit the Balaan Bukid on the nearby island of Guimaras. The hike details the stations of the cross, with the culmination of large cross on the highest point on the island. Afterwards we swam at the nearby Alubihod Beach. It was a perfect day to hike to the cross and then also to enjoy some sun and surf.
