Well….if Jesus should tarry and I leave this earthly life before his return, I would like my gravestone to say: For me to live is Christ and to die is gain. I long to know Jesus more and more, be daily in his presence and to also love his people , messiness and all.
My husband and I have been married 26 years. We have served in missions or the pastorate for most of that time. We have nine kids. Only 4 live with us. Two of our adult kids are also M’s…Jon currently serves in England as he is awaiting his marriage but his heart home is Uganda. My eldest daughter is serving with YWAM Ships currently in Australia but heading to PNG soon. We serve on a remote island off the coast of Panama. We are the operation location leaders of this YWAM Ships ministry called Outpost Panama.
We lead discipleship training schools, work in the villages with community education and health care, and disciple our children and staff. My husband went to Dallas Theological Seminary and received his ThM. He loves to preach and teach; and often we both have the opportunity to speak in conferences, retreats or other YWAM locations. We have done about everything imaginable in Christian ministry but find we really just like being with a variety of people and encouraging them in their faith and then enjoying our families and the beautiful creation we live in.
