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

Extubated!

PRAISE GOD, Seth is on some sort of breathing-rated, large nasal cannula, no tube down his throat, able to cry or grunt or coo like his siblings!! He was extubated at 6:10 this morning. This is so amazing it's surreal. Please, please keep praying (I know you will) that his scarred lungs will tolerate the changeover and even thrive!

  5. AMEN!! Thank YOU, Lord!! So great to hear. I know when our son finally got the tube out, he did so much better, because that is what had been irritating him the whole time. So praying that this is the beginning of great cries, healing lungs and protection for his brain! NKL

  25. “O Lord, the God of our ancestor Israel,[a] may you be praised forever and ever! Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. Everything in the heavens and on earth is yours, O Lord, and this is your kingdom. We adore you as the one who is over all things. Wealth and honor come from you alone, for you rule over everything. Power and might are in your hand, and at your discretion people are made great and given strength." IChronicles 29:10-12
    Halleluiah!!!!
