Now, with the legal formation […]

Thanks to those of you who have been praying for our daughter Cathy. We had another appointment at Hershey Medical Center today, and received a diagnosis. Cathy has a blood condition called essential (or primary) thrombocythemia (also known as thrombocytosis), which is probably hereditary and quite rare, especially for people her age. Simply put, Cathy’s

They spend just over 1 month in Mexico doing all sorts of outdoors and wilderness related activities, as well as some limited ministry.

Oh, you never know what a year might bring! But a couple of things we do know will happen, Lord willing, in 2018 give us cause to be excited. And maybe a bit sad! Our dear daughter Cathy will be flying north soon, but using a one-way ticket instead of a round-trip one. We’re excited
What a week we had this past week! Sort of a blur, actually, but the results remain. The Jesús María church now has a concrete stage area with baptistry. New LED lights were installed in the ceiling. Lots and lots of wheel barrels full of gravel and sand hauled by some seriously committed men and
