Personal Greeting
Happy New Year ! May your year be one full of God’s blessings! 2012 means the beginning of year 13 for me in Namibia Africa. As I have reflected on pictures and long past newsletters I am reminded how close God has been through all! My family is growing up. This year may be the last year that we are all able to travel to the USA together. It is my heart’s desire to see as many folks as possible while we are here. God alone knows the plan. The children and I have been with my Mom in Florida since our arrival and we will remain with her another month. A real purpose of our journey was to serve her this year. Eventually though we will move on as I will also take an extended period of time with my friend, Cheryl, in NJ who is fighting pancreatic cancer. I am so grateful for devoted friends who are willing to help with my children! God provided for us financially this year through a need for a “new” used car, Toivo’s tuition and this trip to the USA. I remain humbled and grateful that there is always just enough. We just about broke even at the end of 2011 and I thank you for your generous and faithful heart. My opportunity to serve in Namibia is dependent on your “yes” as a partner in prayer and finances. May God bless you! Read the rest of this entry

“I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.” ~Isaiah 42:16
It’s officially holiday time now here. The schools have finished for the year. The shop owners are starting to close down and run off into the farmlands or to the coastline. The travelers are flooding through the town of Otjiwarongo like a flash flood of human faces, on their way to somewhere else. Some are tourists from foreign lands such as Germany, the UK, and of course our own homeland – with cameras ready to capture the images of beauty in Etosha. Others are the masses of people returning to their family homesteads, leaving their workplace in the city behind.

Personal Greeting
Many greetings from all of my family! By the time you receive this Janis, Stefanus, Hailey and I will be in Florida. By God’s grace we will be able to spend five months in the USA most of it with my mother and visiting other friends and family. As the children get older we will not be able to make as many journey’s to the USA so I am taking advantage this year of the opportunity to still spend time with family and friends. For December and January we will be at my mother’s home: c/o Alice Johnston, 670 Biscayne Drive, Orange City, Florida 32763. I will use the same cell phone as last year: 856-7455855. Though this trip is about serving family and friends who need help we will be greeting our church homes and other sponsors as God allows. My entire family praises God each day for all those He has brought together to allow us to serve Him through His children in Namibia. I pray that your Thanksgiving was full of yearlong miracles to be thankful for and that your Christmas holiday will be full of Christ’s love. Read the rest of this entry
