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

Please Pray for PNG

This country is hurting for rain. It’s so dry, so brown (comparatively - this is a very naturally verdant land) and whole lakes are gone. Unconfirmed reports say there are already deaths due to starvation and disease from impure water.

This used to be a large lake in the Sepik region of the country. Now it’s dry.


This is our reservoir and source of power. Gavin is parked where there used to be lake, not bare dirt.


Some pictures Gavin has taken recently and I decided to include just because they are cool or beautiful:


How cool is this cloud-covered line of mountain cliffs??
