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

Carrie is sick

We would appreciate your prayers for Carrie, since she has a bad sore throat that may be turning into a cold. She can't go to the NICU when she's sick, so that will be pretty tough on her, especially if it lasts long.

Seth is about the same. Yesterday his oxygen needs were lower but today they have gone up a bit. He is resting well and gaining weight, which is a praise.

Marcie is doing well on the nasal cannula and we are hoping she will move into an open crib soon along with Will and David.

Grace is doing ok, but today has been having some bradycardia events. She did gain a little weight yesterday but still has a long way to go.

  2. Carrie,

    I'm so sorry you're sick. I got sick while mine was in the NICU as well. I couldn't go for a few days. I know how hard it is. Try to remember that even though you aren't there with them they are surrounded by angels. The babies are all doing so well. They have come so far. :) Praying you get better very quickly.

    Just out of curiosity, I saw on NBC today about a family from Texas with Sextuplets. The last one just went home. They said that there was a family that just had Quints there. Would that happen to be you guys, or is there another family?
