Who was that flying high over a lake in Fouts Springs, California, happily experimenting with loops and snap-rolls she’d read about in a magazine, unaware that Ken Johnston, one of her Mission directors, was fishing down below? How can one tell in a few short paragraphs the story of a young pioneer missionary woman who […]

For our Royal Volunteers… NOTE #1 It is amazing to me how willing and able some of our older volunteers  are in doing various jobs. To think that some of them are in their mid to late 70s and can still do jobs like laying carpet, pouring and finishing concrete, replacing boards on bridges, setting cabinets […]

a note to our Royal Volunteers

Feb 3, 2017

I believe our Royal Volunteers are like missionaries to missionaries! They, like missionaries come from all walks of life, give of their lives, talents, and gifts to serve us here at the Homes.

Jul 19, 2016

It was in 1943, while students at Moody Bible Institute, David’s parents heard about the death of five NTM missionaries, at the hands of wild Indians in Bolivia.  Interestingly, although the newspapers announced that this tragedy would result in the demise of this fledgling mission society, the Lord used the news to challenge David’s parents, […]
