This is the blog for Gavin and Carrie Jones and family. We live in Papua New Guinea and are working to see lives transformed by the living Word of God through Bible translation. Gavin is a helicopter pilot. Carrie, who has her degree in Public Health, works in the lab at our busy rural clinic. Our son, Isaac, was born in 2004 and our quintuplets, Will, David, Marcie, Seth, and Grace, were born in 2012.

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. The you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all you heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight. -Proverbs 3:3-6

13 Weeks . . . and really sick.

Carrie is now at 13 weeks.  Last week she was feeling quite a bit better and it seemed she was past the worst of the nausea and sickness.  The last few days, though, have been much tougher for her.  Today, actually, was her worst yet as far as nausea, constipation, heartburn, etc.   Will you please pray with us that the Lord would grant her relief from this nausea so that she can eat the voluminous amounts of food she is supposed to eat?  We know He is able and pray He is willing.

We know that so many hundreds of people out there are praying for us already and it's truly amazing and humbling!  Thank you all so much!

Gavin

13 Weeks and yes, it's a forced smile tonight.
