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

Seth is HOME!

Yes, he got home early this evening, praise God!  He is on 1/2 liter of oxygen still, but doing very well.  He is VERY happy to be back.  Playing with toys and his siblings and grinning at anyone who will look at him.  It's late, so more details tomorrow.  I just wanted to let everyone know that the Jones 8 are all under the same roof for the first time in weeks.  Thank you all for your prayers, and please keep them coming as we head into another flu season!

      Brenda!!! Thank you SO MUCH for the amazing boxes overflowing with beautiful clothes, shoes and accessories, not to mention a little pampering for me! I am just overwhelmed by all you so lovingly bought and collected! And we really needed a lot of the items - like the shoes and sleepers, especially. Great taste in clothing, too! :) Love and gratitude, especially for your prayers and just for caring so much! Carrie
