Beards, Diapers, and Birds: Real Photos, Real Life

Since our last blog, I let my hair and beard grow out to play the role of "Jacob" 

to tell the story of Jericho accompanied by our church Hand Bell Choir.

Here I am safely back in my office after a shave and a haircut.

Here's a portrait of our current MMS Aviation "Candidate Pipeline."

When not training and/or managing our support raisers in donor management, Karen continues to sew for missions. Here she's creating washable baby diapers using a pattern from an international agency. She also sews washable "dignity pads" needed by young women in rural, undeveloped areas around the world. Her work is sent to a mission agency with the global connections and long history of distributing such products to the villages, towns, and cultures in the most need.

And when not sewing, Karen may be found building a bird feeder from scratch to keep our back yard feathered friends well fed. Our local birds fledged lots of families this year!

BABY BLUE BIRD BREAKFAST!

And here's an update from an MMS graduate serving as a pilot/mechanic in Honduras.

Thanks for making all of this possible through your faithful gifts and prayers. 

Your hands and prayers are forming eternal fruit!
