Remember Us?

Hey remember us? Update coming soon! I'm having software problems, I need something that I can create our newsletters on and be able to save them as PDF. My old program isn't working :( . Hopefully in the next couple of days I'll get something together and update you on our life! Keep praying us to the field and all the details that still need to be worked out!
Thank you...Thank you...THANK YOU!!!!!

Track & Field Days!

Well I can't honestly say that this is the boys favorite day of the year...but they we're happy to have a day off of school! These four boys in this picture were the once who were the least excited about the day. But I must add that they had great attitudes and participated in all events and they all did really well. They brought home some 1st, 2nd & 3rd place ribbons!
Way to go guys!!!


Love this event. As soon as the kids can walk they can participate. They are so cute!


Here is the Discus Event! They both have a really good arm.


Here is the Javelin Event...Yikes! Jake with a spear?!


This says it all! YEA we're done!

Here we are...the 'Best Class Ever'...right Barry!

What a blessing our class has been to us over the past two years. We can hardly believe that we will be saying our good-bye's in just a couple of weeks. We have learned so much from everyone and we will always have such special memories of our time together. We ask that you please pray for our class as we all prepare to
'REACH OUT BEYOND OUR WORLD!'

Oh and great news ~ the Lord brought in what we needed to pay of our training debt here! We are now able to start putting away for the things we need to head overseas!

Tech Tip Class and February News!

Here we are in our second round of Tech Tips! We have been covering things like making and using a snake bite zapper {I was able to zap Billy...a couple of times :) }, AC Transformers, Inverters, Water Filtration, How to covert 240 v. to 140 v., How to protect our equipment on the field, and tons and tons of other information that will be helpful when we get on the field.

Friday we were able to go on a "Field Trip" down to the shop where we learned how to properly convert and adjust a propane stove. Here are some pics from the field trip!

Ernest explaining how to convert a stove from Natural Gas to Propane

The flame in the back shows us a bad flame that needs adjusting and the front one is perfect

This is a manometer...this is the $6.00 tool that we need to help us adjust our stove.
Just add water to it and hook it up to the orifice.

This is me hooking it up to the stove

By slowly turning on the burner the propane pushes the water...the number we want the water on is 11 1/2 on the top right side and 11 1/2 on the bottom left side.

Checking the levels

Bill adjusting the regulator with a screwdriver. If the water isn't at those numbers we need to adjust the pressure.

Here we are 'disguising' the levels!

Ernest doing what he does best...talking about tools!

And what girls do when they get board of tool talk...
playing with the tools

and just looking cute pregnant!

Some other news...
In the midst of February Bill was invited out snowmobiling one day. This came at a good time. We were in the middle of some very challenging classes for us and he spent the month working on our vehicle...this was just what he needed!

Update on our Nissan Xterra!
Bill was able to get it apart and put back together twice! After he got it put together the first time with all the repairs they hooked it up to a computer and it showed that a sensor was bad...UGH!
So he took it apart again and replaced the sensor and alas...she's working great now!
We would like to thank those who gave above and beyond toward this. We are so grateful and appreciative for you...God has met this large financial need. As we look ahead and prepare to go to Papua New Guinea we rest in His faithfulness, His timing and that nothing is IMPOSSIBLE for Him! Bill has figured out the total of expenses for the parts and it was $1900.00 {Canadian} the total that was given toward this was $1500.00 American...after the conversion to Canada it came up to $1870
This is the piece of silicone {compared to a quarter} that he found in the head blocking the antifreeze.

The boys were pretty excited about going to Snow Camp with their Youth Group. With the expenses that we had from our vehicle we wondered how to come up with the cost of the trip {$80 each}...when two different people from the church that their Youth Group is generously paid their way! God is so good and continues to show the boys that He cares about all the details in our lives.

They say kids grow overnight...Garrett and Bill were in the kitchen side by side and I couldn't resist getting a pic. at their height difference.
Garrett is quite proud of his height!

NTBI Jackson vs. NTMC

We made it out to the big game between NTBI {New Tribes Bible Institute} in Jackson, Michigan vs. New Tribes Mission Canada. The teams were made up of staff and students and, we were all out for a good time!

I took a bunch of pictures, hope you enjoy!

Cleaning the ice!

Finally on the ICE!

I love this...these boys were keeping score and had no idea I was taking their picture.


Nice Shot John!

Nice Game Guys! Oh, by the way NTMC won 7-6

Sunny Sunday Afternoon!

What Jake does on a Sunny Sunday afternoon when Garrett writes a report and Dad sleeps!

First...get the ramp in place

Second, climb the hill!
Lining up to the ramp.
Get the tongue out!

Fall in front of Mom!
Climb the hill..again

Hit the jump...again

Deal with mother who wants to take pictures! =)


This is Canada's version of the "Footprints in the Sand...Snow" poem

Check out the video that I got of him!
It is a high of 37 F. today and at 13 that is really warm...note the t-shirt in the video!
