Our Sending Agency & Ministry-
Covering is C.T.E.N.  Other than
mom and dad, they are the ones
who know how to get things to us
the best possible way and are also
available to answer any questions
you might have.    Commission to
Every Nation  handles the over-
sight of our  finances and provides
us with a wealth of extra pastoral
counsel from their many years of
mission experience.  
If God were to lay on your heart to
join us financially in any sort of way,
these would be the guys to talk to.

We enjoy feedback:
We appreciate your prayers and encouragement, so if you have
time to write a one or two-liner, we would love it.  Also if you have
questions that come up about our ministry, please ask.  Thank you!
We, like all Iris missionaries, are faith-based and as such raise our own support each year in order to serve full-time on the field. We recognize that we are but an extension of His body,
and honored to be His hands here in Mozambique.   If you would like to join us in financial support please do one of two things:  Either 1) click on the CTEN link below to give online
through our sending agency (they will be able to receipt you for tax credit), or if you would rather use physical mail, 2) you can send it directly to CTEN or give them a call - their information is
above on the left.  We could not imagine being in Mozambique without the incredible support we feel and know within the Body of Christ.  Thank you all for your intercession, financial gifts
and monthly support, as well as the care packages that have arrived for the boys and us.  We declare this ministry to be "good soil" and we declare you and your households blessed!  
Listed below are the churches we are currently linked to in harvest.  If you are living or visiting in their area, please join them for worship.  Thank you pastors & church bodies!

While we're on the field, should God speak to you concerning a physical package for
the boys, or even for your "favorite missionaries," this is where we would receive it.
Us with our younger guys, all decked out in their monogrammed
sweatshirts.  They're so proud of them and yikes ! -    wear them
everyday.  (Still !)
This is definitely the best way to get hold of us, at least initially, as we check our email
daily.
