Happy birthday, Markl! May 4, 2023 My final blog for this trip…it’s bittersweet. A few days ago, Ed asked us to be thinking about some part of this trip that has really stood out to us so we could talk about it tonight. As I thought about it the past couple days the one thing that really stood out to me was…

May 3, 2023 I read from 2 Corinthians 10 this morning. Verses 3-4 struck me today. “For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.” Just wait until you hear how our day went and keep in…

May 2, 2023 Happy 75th birthday to my step-dad, Bob Lange! Woke up thinking we were going to Nasedegu to hand out tracts and visit hut to hut, but, as is very common here and in serving the Lord, plans changed! Janine is still down with malaria and Ovi just tested positive as well. This is his 10th time having it! They…

May 1, 2023 I cannot believe it’s May already! That means we head home in just a few short days! I have very mixed emotions. I really miss my family (and to be honest, my bed), but I don’t want to leave either! There’s something about being able to focus solely on ministering to others and sharing the gospel all day every…

April 30, 2023 It was a beautiful Sunday here in Malawi! We had to leave a little earlier than the other days and some were running a little behind getting ready so we did not have a morning challenge from Joshua, but we got to hear Ed preach later, so it all turned out well. We visited the church in Nasedegu today.…

April 29, 2023 I will admit it was hard to wake up this morning. Three days of camp wore this old woman out! Leah wasn’t feeling very well this morning, but had mostly recovered by the time we left and made it through the day. She feels much better now. Ed spoke to us from Joshua 4 this morning. After crossing the…

April 28, 2023 Ed challenged us this morning out of Joshua 3 where God instructs Joshua to send the priests, carrying the ark of the covenant, into the flood-swollen Jordan River before they continue on their way to Jericho. He pointed out the great faith these men showed when they obeyed Joshua (and God) because these priests would not have actually witnessed…

April 27, 2023 We were challenged again from the book of Joshua this morning. Pastor Ed pointed out that Jericho was already ready for defeat before Joshua’s army even began to walk around it. Rahab told the spies that the hearts of all the people were melted at just hearing about what Israel’s God had done! Many of the people in the…

Wednesday, April 26, 2023 Today was camp day! My first here in Malawi. Ed spoke to us from Joshua 2 this morning. The section where the spies were hidden by Rahab the prostitute. He reminded us that God can use anyone from any background, no matter how “bad” they had been. I am so glad of that! Also, he talked a little…

Tuesday, April 25, 2023 Today was a pretty emotional day for us. It wasn’t as physical as the next several will be, but our hearts went through the wringer! Praise God that He is in control of every single situation and we can trust that He already knows the outcome! We began our day with more challenge from Pastor Ed in the…
