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

Urgent request for Carrie’s mom

Hi friends, my mom had a stroke yesterday afternoon. We are less than 48 hours from departing on the first leg of our trip back to PNG (We are stopping through CA to visit two church families, Gavin’s family, and our friends and supporters there.) Please pray for my mom and dad and for us as we make decisions. This is all very sudden and overwhelming, but we know that’s par for the course with strokes. Please pray for wisdom for all of us, PEACE in the midst of this, and protection from our own fleshly responses as well as from the evil one. We know the Lord is on His Throne and intimately, lovingly involved in every last tiny detail! Thank you!

In His Grip,

Carrie
