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

Girls' clothes





I was very surprised to find out today that despite this massive pile of adorable clothes from generous friends and even "strangers," we only have enough girl clothes for up to three months of age (or 12 pounds, which may come well after 3 months from their actual birth date). We have very few items in the 3-6 month age/size and beyond. So I "misspoke" a few posts ago when I said we had enough for the 1st year. I've learned the lesson not to count your clothes before your sweet volunteers do it officially. :) Which brings me to the boys' clothes: they haven't been counted yet. I'll let you know as soon as we do. Thank you, Deb and Wanda, for giving of your time, and THANKS to everyone who has bought or passed on clothes! We love hand-me-downs - especially for the next 3-4 years in PNG where life is just dirty!


Very blessed by very many,
Carrie, for Gavin too
