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

Waiting for surgery

Thanks for all your prayers! I am sitting at the joint replacement clinic with my parents, feeling well enough to be here although definitely not 100%. Dad goes in for surgery at 7:30 a.m. CST, so we appreciate your continued prayers. David and Will had low-grade fevers yesterday, so please pray for the babies too - as so many of you do daily; thank you!! Everyone was still asleep when I left the house, and I pray they remain so until at least 7 a.m. for their dear daddy's sake. (Speaking of which, both Marcie and Gracie now say, "Hi Daddy!" when they see Gavin. Darling little daughters!!!)

Thanks to those who prayed for Baby "Lea." Yesterday was a GOOD day for her in which the Lord's mercy and providence was clearly evident. We pray such good days and outcomes continue for this precious baby girl.

In cute quint news, Will watched Seth walking between Carlene, Lynee and Aunt Courtney in the living room last night, garnering LOTS of applause, so he decided he'd get in on the action. So Will, who has been walking for 3 months or more, walked between the ladies and received the praise and applause he considered was also due him. :) He was so proud of himself! Seth is practically running the last few steps between people; he kind of hurls himself into their arms.

Dad took David on one last Costco trip pre-surgery. We'll have to take the babies to visit him for the next month.

Thank you for praying.

Much love,
Carrie
