About Me

One of God's sheep who has moved to different pastures. Sometimes they seem greener and other times not so green. But my Shepherd is always there for me.

Fourteen years of my life were spent in a one room schoolhouse. I will be adding another year to the total. Terry and I will be leaving for Ecuador in July to teach MKs (Missionary kids) for the next school year. This has all happened so quickly. SIM Loja has been praying for several years that someone would come and teach. As Terry and I walked thru the class building in December we both sensed that we should be there.

This has not been an easy decision to make. Terry has a wonderful job that he loves and it has benefits. We will be leaving mom and dad and new friends we have made here. Last but not least is Hiedi the missionary dog, the dog I despised and only agreed to keep because she belonged to my grandchildren. I have become very attached to her.

Pray for us as we begin this new journey. Pray that we can get all the visa stuff done in a timely manner and that we will be able to get the support we need. So much needs to be done before we leave. The house needs to be rented, Heidi needs a new home, and I have to figure out what we will need for a year and how to get it all into four suitcases.
