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

Calling all volunteers!!

My efforts have ramped in organizing the volunteers and it is clear how much preparation is needed now in advance of the quints' arrival home.

 My first focus is to make sure I have my list of volunteers as complete as possible.  If you have any interest in helping the Jones family (and have not already contacted me through the following email address), please e-mail me at jonesquints@yahoo.com and let me know your name, phone number and how you know Gavin & Carrie (or where you read about them).  

I will then be sending the list of volunteers a questionnaire to complete regarding type(s) of help you're interested in and day(s) you are available.

 A huge need will be for volunteers overnight.  Although the schedule might be adjusted slightly, it will likely be 11:00pm-7:00am.  My goal is to have enough volunteers that you only need do it once every two weeks.  We will provide full training and you will not be alone during the night shift.

 For those friends from out of town who would like to plan a visit to Dallas, please send me those dates so that I can co-ordinate local volunteers around out of town volunteers.

 Thank you for your support and I am excited to pull together as many volunteers as we can for this wonderful family and their precious kids.

    If we've already been volunteering do you need us to do this, or are we already on your list?

    Great question - no, if you have already signed up on the volunteer list then you don't need to do so again.

    Thanks,
    Stacey
