This post is a continuation of another, go here to start at the beginning. Go here to read the previous post. I’m walking around the grounds, searching for Dave. I finally give up when a few team members come to me needing the bathroom keys. Eric and I escort them to the bathroom, which are at […]
It’s a rather special week/day today, Eric and I are serving together on a trip. I’m running around ahead of Eric’s teams making sure everything is prepared at their next ministry location before they arrive. I drive into the orphanage gates and laugh, it’s packed. It’s almost 2:00 and you know what that means? Feeding program […]
With a full day’s errands swirling chaotically around me, I put the car in park and knock on the gate. I step into the orphanage–it’s been a whole month since I’ve been here. I rush past it everyday as I complete food deliveries, or get water, or run to town for meetings.. always busy busy. I […]
Hi, I’m Cassie. Stay at home mom to my kids. Celebrating my 5,/6/7/8th wedding anniversary. Part-time missionary who travels the world with my little family. This was what 30 looked like when I was 19. Meet the husband in MBSF (college ministry) while on some kind of mission trip, get married, start a family after […]

We are still on our journey of getting our kiddo home. This is our son. We are in the very last stages of adopting Eric, a […]
Hi. I’m Ashley. I’m a mom of three. This is my silly family. Inside the walls of our home, we operate just like any busy family. I spend my early mornings packing lunches for school, signing assignment pads, determining what my morning grump will eat for breakfast while making a ponytail for my early riser, […]
Did you know that the month of November is Orphan Awareness Month? Like every year, we love to use this month to step back and see how we as a couple are contributing to the orphan aide across the world. Living in the age of computers and technology, it’s super easy to support a child […]
Jason is one of those kind of guys who my old youth pastor would describe as “solid” – an all around good man, compassionate, joyful and firm on a foundation of Christ and who He is. He’s been with joining with PPM since 2011, taking trips to Haiti each year. The relationships he and his […]
Rachel is an awe-inspiring woman of Christ. She was on a trip I led this past summer and led us in worship every morning and night. It was an absolute joy to serve alongside her during the week and be ushered into the presence of Christ through her humble heart, beautiful voice and guitar. Her […]
As typical with our job, we get the awesome opportunity to lead all kinds of mission teams from North America. My first team of the summer season was a group of Engineers from Engineering Ministries International, Canada. The group consisted of 11 members one of whom I feel like could be my long lost sister. […]
It’s been such an exhausting day. Filling water, getting food for the team, purchasing items for the community, distributing donations and ministry money, leading in ministry and the list goes on. So many things clamour for my attention day to day. After helping coordinate the feeding all 87 children at the orphanage, the group goes […]
