Sinking, Swimming, and the Art of Treading Water- The Adventures of a New Missionary. The Perfect Matches for PNG. The box says matches. They look. Like matches. They warn children to stay far away from them. And yet (like soooooo many things in New Guinea🙂 AND YET, they are NOT what they seem! They will even spark, giving you hope that, yes, this. Match will be the one! Hopeless, but close. I find that though my stove still may not be lit, I have built a great deal of character through this little exer...

Thought for the Week: Psalms 94:17-19 | karenmarvin

Sinking, Swimming, and the Art of Treading Water- The Adventures of a New Missionary. Thought for the Week: Psalms 94:17-19. Unless the Lord had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence. When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy , O Lord, held me up. In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul. No time to be daydreaming! Ahhhh, what a pleasant word. It makes me think of York peppermint patties.🙂. When we have a multitude of thoughts, whether it’s worry or just thoughts...

If it’s escargot, it’s elegant. Any other version of snails just doesn’t sound exciting. If the sauce morphs into some unintel...Water...

Sinking, Swimming, and the Art of Treading Water- The Adventures of a New Missionary. I really, really, really dislike mud here. I do walk in it when I have to, but I pray in proportion to the amount of mud before me🙂. Early in the week of meetings, I was half listening (honestly, thinking more about how filthy my feet, and everyone else’s feet, were from all that mud:), really spiritual, I know, when the speaker quoted this verse, I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them? I wonder how often I’ve ...

Esteban was born in Montevideo, Uruguay. He received Christ as his Savior at a young age under his father’s ministry. But it was not until later in life that he understood that God had a plan for him and he just needed to follow it. Emily was born in Odessa, Texas and moved to Uruguay at the age of six with her parents BBFI missionaries Jesse and Glenna Parnell. Growing up on the mission field has been a key factor for her desire to return to Uruguay as a missionary. In 2009 Esteban were invited to minis...
