Missionaries

Dear friends, what a year it has been! Due to COVID-19, this past year has looked quite different for us, but there is so much to praise God for. Over the past year, we have not been able to travel abroad to work hands-on with ministry partners, nor have we been able to visit family, […]
About a year ago, just prior to Covid-19 entering our collective lives, our nine-year-old son Jonathan was working hard at SonSet Solutions, where we work on loan from MissionGO, filming a new promotional video. The video is about satellite-based monitors, known as SonSetLinkTM. These monitors are used in 27 countries, on 6 continents and are […]
Last December our youngest, William, had just turned one and was facing serious health complications. He was admitted to Riley Children’s Hospital in Indianapolis with dangerously high blood ammonia levels, failure to thrive, and abnormal metabolism markers. Although this past year has had its challenges, the Lord worked a miracle in our son’s life. What […]
Missionaries from Marino Village, an agriculturally-minded group of children’s homes in Tanzania, visited SonSet Solutions (where we work on loan from MissionGO) and expressed a need for a moringa seed oil extractor. Moringa is, by far, one of my most favorite plants – it’s incredibly nutritious and flourishes in the difficult growing conditions found in […]
In February, a team of engineers from SonSet Solution’s Community Development Department (which includes our Tom Scatliff) started working on a new version of our SonSetLink (a satellite-based clean water monitoring system) at the request of a partner ministry in Malawi. SonSet Solutions, where we work on loan from MissionGO, is excited to partner with […]
At the beginning of June, Tom transitioned back to working at the office. His summer intern arrived that same week and together they are continuing to make headway on the SonSetLinkTM monitoring firmware. Tom will be mentoring Nathan, an engineering student from Liberty University, for ten weeks as he learns about missions, ministry, and how […]
We packed our belongings into the back of a U-Haul truck, said farewell to our church family, and headed south. With fresh work visas to work as Canadian in the USA, we took a giant leap of faith, left all we knew in Canada, and headed to Indiana. Our kids were 8 months and 3 […]
This time last year we were in Congo. No one could have imaged what the world would look like just a year later, but what you can imagine is the hardships faced by so many of our beloved Congolese… And now, they are also facing COVID-19. In late January, to help combat the rampant malnutrition […]
The following was written before the corona crisis really hit. I hesitated about sending it out, considering it isn’t corona related, but maybe we could all use a break from that and benefit from a beautiful reminder of how God provides.  As for the impact the current global scenario has on our family: We have both […]
