Current Status



When the first few cases popped up on the West Coast, I don't think anyone could have guessed how quickly it would become a national phenomenon.  But now COVID-19 dominates every feed and every newscast from New York to Bombay!

So here we are, sitting in radically different circumstances, and yet the reality is still the same.  We are physically separate from our work for the time being.  So how do we cope with being quarantined in a second country?  The answer is simple.  In addition to making sure our kids are on track with school, we do everything we can to support the people who are still on the ground serving orphans and vulnerable children.

We are in daily contact with the staff and are diligent to pass along news and photos to our ICC partners around the world (offices in 7 countries).  We meet weekly with our Local Manager to discuss both strategy and operations.  We "sit in" on weekly staff meetings virtually and give input and encouragement.

And we pray - daily - that God would protect our staff and families and that He would further the good work that he has begun.  Please pray with us!
