New myMinistry blog migration
David at his desk at the NTM Home Office.
David and the communications team have been working for several months to make changes to the myMinistry blogs powered by WordPress.
Some of those changes involve adding new features like being about to make a blog post and have it make a Facebook post at the same time.
This migration is happening today, and this post is a test of the Wordbooker plugin that makes posting on Facebook at the same time possible. If you see this feel free to comment and pray for our team.

The WHOLE Story
Katrina watching a baptism in the Kalanguya tribe many years ago.
When we first moved to the flight center for the Northern Philippines our only connection to the internet was a hike down a steep and slippery slope to the road.
From there it was an hour public “jeepney” ride on a mostly dirt road to the next town where a motorcycle with a sidecar could be found.

Caleb’s visit to New Tribes Bible Institute
Katrina and Caleb in Wisconsin
Four of us set out on Tuesday afternoon, around 3:00, on a 24 hour journey to the New Tribes Bible Institute in Waukesha, Wisconsin. We arrived at the Bible School on Wednesday around 4:00. We were very happy to see everybody and everybody was very happy to see us. We hung out with people until dinner that night and played some volleyball and card games afterwards.

A really hard time
Katrina and a friend from Florida who is also an NTBI student
The last few weeks have been a really dry time of learning for me. I sit in classes and want to learn and understand what the teachers are saying, but it seems no matter how hard I try and concentrate nothing is going in. I have been reading on my own in the mornings and as I read I see the truth of God’s Word, but thinking deeply about what its saying is hard to do.

Discipleship is Multiplying
Over the last three years David has been teaching Firm Foundations: Creation to Christ in several different venues. Kristia has also been teaching a few ladies one-on-one.
Because we understand that Jesus has called us to make disciples and not simply get people to “make decisions,” it is important to us that those we disciple not only come to biblical faith, but become obedient to start making disciples themselves.

Katrina’s third semester at New Tribes Bible Institute
Katrina is a Junior at New Tribes Bible Institute.
We have been going through some amazing classes at New Tribes Bible Institute this semester. I have gotten to take 2 Corinthians, Romans, Missions in Church History, James and Angelology.
Right now in Romans class we are going through verse by verse and learning about man’s desperate need for God, about how God provided the only way for man to be cleansed, and about our new life in Christ- our justification, sanctification and glorification.
