I’m so thankful for your ongoing support and prayers.

Seventeen years in the Philippines found Will and I building relationships to share the Gospel with people in need. Twelve of those years we were in maximum security prisons and officially recognized by the Bureau of Corrections as registered volunteers in Manila and on the island of Mindanao and afforded special access.

God had us continue FACE 2 FACE ministry in the mountains of Panama for the following four years.  In 2021 we repatriated to the US and to a missionary community in Florida. In a few months, Will went to Heaven. 

God left me behind and still strong. He opened new ministry opportunities to serve in a leadership role within my village. I find joy in helping elderly missionaries living around me while encouraging others in their faith.  My recent mission trip to the Dominican Republic uplifted my own heart to see my teammates catch the mission vision.

God provides for me and I’m able to financially support the outreaches of our original core group of inmates who have been released after nearly 30 years of incarceration! I keep in touch with them and see photos of their new ministries. They are proclaiming God’s word as they are invited and eager to share their testimonies.  They are men that have been dramatically changed by Jesus Christ and can’t be denied.

I love Jesus. God has used simple, ordinary people like Will and me. I am grateful for my partners and my life.
