The Life of the Midwife: Red Moon Rising
http://midwifey.blogspot.com/2013/03/red-moon-rising.html
The Life of the Midwife. Sunday, March 10, 2013. The sun shall be turned into darkness,. And the moon into blood. Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord. Looking for a book to challenge and encourage you? Is one such book. One of the girls I live with handed me a book one day and said, "I think you would like this." She couldn't have been more right! Through the weeks of reading and digesting the tail of a willing man who followed God my heart was so challenged! Zells on a mission!

http://midwifey.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
The Life of the Midwife. Sunday, April 22, 2012. Catches #25 and 26. My how time flies and birth stories really fly by. There have been two stories since the last one. However, there won't be too many details, just a quick update! Adelyn gave birth on April 13. She came in and had not been able to alert her husband who was on duty that she was going to have her baby because she was out of load! Gotta love the creativity in names. Thank you all so much for praying for these women and their babies. My frie...

The Life of the Midwife: Fading fantasy
http://midwifey.blogspot.com/2013/03/fading-fantasy.html
The Life of the Midwife. Friday, March 8, 2013. To the woman He said:“I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; In. You shall bring forth children; Your desire. For your husband, And he shall rule over you.” -Gen.3:16. A few friends and I just took a little journey together to, of sorts, to Libera from the comfort of the living room. We watched a BBC presentation " Toughest Place to be a Midwife. In this, it becomes clear that "closer to nature" isn't that beautiful, glossy, full color pho...

The Life of the Midwife: Bugnay
http://midwifey.blogspot.com/2013/02/bugnay.html
The Life of the Midwife. Friday, February 22, 2013. There's too much to write and not enough time. :) This is my friend's clinic in Bugnay. It's a very rural village in the mountains surrounded by rice fields. Enjoy! A little sun after riding on top of the jeep and catching some rays on the 3 hours up to the mountains. This great vantage point is from our perfect, but slightly uncomfortable seat on top of the jeepney.didn't know there was such a thing as "student drivers" here! That's where we're headed!

The Life of the Midwife: Giving when you have nothing.
http://midwifey.blogspot.com/2013/02/giving-when-you-have-nothing.html
The Life of the Midwife. Sunday, February 17, 2013. Giving when you have nothing. F or all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God,. But she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had. 8221; (Luke 21:4). Rice To some people it's like gold to other people, they hardly notice it's existence. I just received a bag of about 2kilos of rice this morning as a gift of appreciation. Wow! This may not sound amazing, but it is. It's challenging, no? After all, what is a bag of rice?

The Life of the Midwife: Same Same, but Different
http://midwifey.blogspot.com/2013/10/same-same-but-different.html
The Life of the Midwife. Saturday, October 5, 2013. Same Same, but Different. This is a phrase I learned from a friend who had traveled in Thailand. The word they say for the English equivalent of "different" sounds like "same same". So, it's now a joke and a common phrase in Thailand. It is also a good analogy for the bigger picture of cultural differences. 2 Clean up after yourself. Directional gestures are just not as straight forward as one might think. You see, in the Philippines the acceptable ...

The Life of the Midwife: Balut
http://midwifey.blogspot.com/2013/02/balut.html
The Life of the Midwife. Monday, February 18, 2013. It appears to be a harmless hard boiled egg except for the lite blue tint in the shell. This is balut. A duck egg that has been fertilized and then is cooked before the chick is fully formed. Sound strange, and it is a little. It might help if you think of it more like sof-shelled crabs. So, overall, the experience was good and will probably be repeated. Branching out isn't always so bad! February 19, 2013 at 4:45 AM. February 19, 2013 at 12:08 PM.

The Life of the Midwife. Thursday, May 31, 2012. Of Clusters and Moves. Just a little update from life, apart from babies. Though, i do love them and they are a very integral part of living here, there is much else that goes on. Mostly, just common place, regular ol', garden variety living. So, here's sharing some of that "mundane" living with you (actually it's quite exciting to me - because Jesus, well, He prepares it for me each day! Can you see it? It's real practical, real practical. Actually twice&...

The Life of the Midwife: July 2012
http://midwifey.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
The Life of the Midwife. Sunday, July 29, 2012. Once again, the LORD gave me much favor throughout my travels. What initially appeared as a hassle with my bag being overweight (actually our fault for mis-reading the website) in the end was a blessing. In Manila they only allow 7k for the carry on bag. We almost packed it with 20 lbs more due to the weight in the very beginning. However, we didn't and it worked perfectly. My flights, though each was slightly. Will I burn out? And, the LORD gave me one mor...
