So much of everyday life here helps illuminate a lot of scripture. Psalm 1:4 (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMb8nfghomJ/?igshid=13qp7vzjdj8zn

No signs out here, just "oldies" on one of the other local radio stations! (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMU0vPuhDnE/?igshid=p2pnkdtb48a5

Things that make my heart sing: - being surrounded by a library of books - binging Olympic Games coverage - reading scripture with the fam. (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMTHhSTBKqH/?igshid=13yr75mm6gbh

Pulling out of the taxi station, probably not a good sign when you have to start the day pushing your vehicle. (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMPBXiPhNET/?igshid=88wnupjg2h33

Y'all be praying for Hope Radio. This week has been a little hard to sustain our on-air presence. Our solar grid and back-up generator haven't been too keen on supplying the constant power we need for a successful 24/7 operation. Help is on the way, but the broadcasts will be touch-and-go for a while. People in town have told us they are missing their friend!

So, I started a bit later in life (3rd grade) than she, but she spent the morning creating her suite of electronic appareil: computer, mouse, cell phone, camera.... #jcrewpartyof6 #likefatherlikedaughter (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLMWacwBdbe/?igshid=3lq6q0w0iv2b

I mean, I'm sorry for you all dealing with blizzards and freezing temperatures. If you come visit, we can at least offer you a warm place to stay! (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CK6lXQ8Bl9w/?igshid=q88boufomuou

An appendix to remember. The abrupt switch in our family's routine has its sweet spots: the kids had their classmates make get well cards. We've been bathed in generosity from our team here. #jcrewpartyof6 #appendectomy #ItTakesLove #hospitalofhopemangotogo (at Hospital of Hope Mango Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CK4gGtshwpg/?igshid=ny3vwgz4m9a7

Our friend was asked to speak for a few weeks at this small but lively church. It's been a year since we've been able to be here. Good to see everyone again! (at Koumongoukan, Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKuJ5-FhR70/?igshid=15hu10nphzyp5

In a culture where close contact is so integral to each relationship, it takes a lot of humbleness and sacrifice to mask up and distance lovingly. I'm thankful that this team's testimony and pride for Hope Radio seems greater than their personal comfort. (Even the motos are parking farther apart these days 😜 ) #HopeRadio #RadioEsperance #MaskUp #ItTakesLove (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKlhMcAhZl6/?igshid=f6ayyo23q91u

So, our town just got an upgrade. New variety of ice cream at the local gas station. Huge win because we're so far away from the capital, and keeping things cold is always a challenge. Perfect timing for birthday celebrations this week! #jcrewpartyof6 #smallvictories #hugewin (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKbTzFLhGWi/?igshid=bbao1ee6sl9k

As our final family gathering of each day, there's usually a small battle over who will read the selected scripture. But I'm not going to get in their way. Great to witness the zeal! (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKXeTFiBwy0/?igshid=t8qsi6xx8jxh

This boy loves his sisters. And on this girl's day, he practiced so he could see her smile 😊 #jcrewpartyof6 (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKVIMjwBqNC/?igshid=1s69dzmfwmkex

Leaving the radio station today, I looked back through my rear view mirror, and the last 5 years just flashed through my mind. Crazy what God has brought us through, and the people behind us, praying and giving! What's in your #rearviewmirror ? #jcrewpartyof6 (at Mango, Togo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJv_dGphKpv/?igshid=rg1688wnw1n1
