Shout out to Canyon Hills Missions Go Team. What a fun send off for me and two other missions people heading to a different part of the world. I enjoyed the lunch and prayer time. I have spent five years under the leadership of Pastors Corey & Aaron. People rub off on each other. Think…

Eleven days to launch and it is looking good for this training at YWAM 50-Plus in Wiler, Switzerland. I’m excited to be welcomed so warmly by the training staff and to look forward to meeting students from Korea, Australia, others from USA, plus several other countries. Our final destination will be Amsterdam and I’ll keep…

I thought they were fleabites but then my allergy to mosquitos took over. Have you ever begged God to help you? I have had a couple of prayers going up and am so grateful. Firstly, my VISA was approved on Friday and you can be sure my passport was on the way, same day. The…

Years ago I was having a casual conversation about demons after church (ha ha – no one has casual conversations about evil). I had no opinion but then a friend said, “Jesus believed in demons” and that settled it for me. I understand there are powers working against God and so I expect a bit…

Is a shout-out the same as boasting? I think not. Boasting is about me. A shout-out is about others. So many shout-outs – my heart is full. Because I will be away, I’ve spent time in Idaho and Texas with my children and grandchildren. I will be back soon but these memories are precious: hikes,…

Thank you for following me as I work at following Jesus. I make a habit of reading the daily devotions in Our Daily Bread. On Monday, I read Deuteronomy 4:9-14 and I hope this all sounds familiar. Quoting the devotion, “One of the most wonderful ways parents and grandparents can influence their children is by…

My name was supposed to be Robert as was both of my sisters. My older sister was supposed to be Robert Patrick. She is Patricia. My younger sister was supposed to be Robert Terrell and she is Teresa. I was supposed to be Robert Gene and I am Pamela Jean. Were my parents disappointed? Maybe…

PRAISING OUR GOD: So much to be grateful for. Open doors and provision for this missions trip and training. It is looking good and then I learn that my visa application was misplaced but is now found! Thank the Lord. Please pray that the timeline will be met and I will have visa in hand…

Thank you for following me as I try to follow Jesus. I last wrote about downsizing in preparation for this new season of serving. That is an action of thoughtful dispersing. I have a note-to-self which reads, “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful”….
