Tooth Fairy Tales: Changing Seasons

http://thetoothfairytales.blogspot.com/2012/08/changing-seasons.html

Monday, August 6, 2012. I want to say a big THANK YOU! Both for the financial and prayer support you all have given me over the past 2 years. I could not have committed to serving the people of West Africa through Mercy Ships without that support! Also, I'd like to invite you to an evening at my parent's home to have dessert with us! I would love to have this opportunity to both thank you in person and share with you what God has accomplished through our sacrifice. Please join us on August 16th.

Tooth Fairy Tales: January 2012

http://thetoothfairytales.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html

Tuesday, January 3, 2012. A new town, a new (temporary) job! Being from a big family I’m used to making large meals, scrubbing a lot of dishes but this is multiplied a couple hundred times. It’s been a blessing to work with this dedicated team, who didn’t receive a holiday break, “People still have to eat! Thankfully, Ghana has provided us with fantastic produce! It’s been nice to add lettuce, cukes and tomatoes back into our diet. We’ve even been spoiled over the holiday to enjoy a few m...Remember it&#...

Tooth Fairy Tales: July 2010

http://thetoothfairytales.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, July 13, 2010. How hard we work but also how we laugh and encourage each other. Some snap their fingers when they're in pain (it's like they're scolding us for hurting them) and make strange moaning sounds, but they are so strong, it's a "no tears" policy among these Togolese women. 99% of our patients can't even say "thank you" any communication without a translator is done by hand signals, so this unexpected compliment floored me, so precious. WE ARE AMAZED by Ginger Millermon. To learn more a...

Tooth Fairy Tales: October 2011

http://thetoothfairytales.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html

Monday, October 17, 2011. The pain was intense and although she didn’t know what would be coming next, Aminata knew she was one step closer to help. Her mouth was slightly OPEN! It was still painful and a very small space but it impressed the doctors. One of them announced, “Wow! Now that we can work with! We’ll finally be able to extract those teeth! Thursday, October 13, 2011. Accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative! But in all the changes, seasons and personnel, I have to remind myself to focu...

Sunday, April 3, 2011. All in a days work. The numbers speak for themselves. Within 14 days of opening the dental clinic we have treated over 1,000 patients!

One Writer’s Harrowing Journey (With Pictures!): March 2011

http://theawesomeawesomenessofme.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

One Writer’s Harrowing Journey (With Pictures! Tuesday, March 29, 2011. Are You A Pen-And-Paper Person? Or do you go straight to the computer and start tp-tp-tptptp-ing away? I love a good notebook. What is it about the chaos of keeping my ideas in barely legible writing across a million different notebooks that helps my creative process? I appreciate my computer. I really do. But sometime it just throws me off. I have a system. My system works. (Mostly). A big exception to the one project-one notebook t...

Tooth Fairy Tales: "Except for God"

http://thetoothfairytales.blogspot.com/2012/02/except-for-god.html

Friday, February 24, 2012. This is a well-known Ghanian symbol meaning "Except for God" (GYE NYAME) reminding anyone who sees it of God's Sovereignty. As a dental team we have been reminded of just that: our dependence on God. While jumping into the task of setting up clinic and beginning treatment, we have been reminded daily that without Him, we can do nothing. Without His intervention and if not according to His will, we labor in vain. And as always; He has been faithful. View my complete profile.

A Still Heart; A Knowing Mind: In the last month or so.....

http://astillheart.blogspot.com/2011/06/in-last-month-or-so.html

A Still Heart; A Knowing Mind. Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 46:10. Thursday, June 9, 2011. In the last month or so. Well, since it's been a while since I've had the time to update; I thought I'd give you a little about what's been going on in our part of the world for the last month. I saw a new country! My siblings and I went to Brussles, Belgium for the day. I highly recommend it! The fries and waffles were amazing. Our swe...
