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

MRI Results

(Someone else’s puppy, thankfully!)

Gracie’s MRI revealed a cleft in her cerebellum - the motor control and coordination section. It’s an old prematurity-related injury from lack of oxygenation that inhibited the normal development of that area, if I am understanding correctly. They couldn’t find anything to explain some strange spikes during sleep that can be related to epilepsy (but in her case are not). They found scarring and thickening in her sinuses. She has had chronic sinus issues for YEARS. Her passages are so tiny they don’t drain well!


She is recovering well from her surgery, being a champ through the pain. ❤️ Precious girl. Here’s a photo she took a couple of weeks ago.
