It is hard to believe that almost 2 years ago (Oct.) we boarded a plane with our kids and earthly belongings and moved to Malawi. At the time we had been family of 6 for a short 6 weeks and really had no idea what living in a 3rd world country might look like. !

In 2 years, our family has changed in many ways. We have fallen in love with 82 kids, been received graciously by “the warm heart of Africa, made a lot of mistakes, have seen God move in people’s lives through this ministry, developed many relationships, started our 3rd year of homeschool, seen God sustain us through different stresses and trials, and have realized that we have a lot more to learn and do than 2 years can give us. Malawi has become our “home”. After a lot of prayer and discussions, we feel like God’s answer for us is to “stay” and continue the work that He has laid out for us. !

We are eternally grateful for all of you as you have given and prayed for us to do the work that God has called us to the last 2 years. We humbly come to you asking you to stick with us and continue your partnerships with our family. This work here is something that we can’t do with out each one of you. Your giving, prayers, emails and texts sustain us and provide an unbelievable amount of encouragement when the going gets tough!!
