We are off and running as we enter what is already a tiring week. Sunday night Rev. Evan Drake, president of our mission, began a three-night series of meetings about the biblical family. Families are just as dysfunctional here as they are in the U. S. Each night’s meetings were very well attended and he [...]

But it was a good one. As I’ve mentioned, we have some of our leaders here this weekend from the Bible Basics home office. The reason they chose this particular time was to participate in the celebration of Dr. Glen Solomon’s 50 years in the ministry. Dr. Solomon is president of Baptist Ministries of Honduras, [...]

Yes, indeed, we are now on the air all day in English and all day in Spanish. The liftoff was this morning and went off without a hitch. We go on the air at 5:00 AM, so Peter and I both got there a little ahead of time to move the AM feed to the [...]

The good news is that we went to yet another funeral yesterday. Read on and you’ll understand why I call it good news. We’d been expecting this one for a while. Cora Wood was “Aunt Cora” to everyone who knew her. She had a special affinity for the teens of Oak Ridge and taught a [...]

We have visitors! A team from a church in Livonia, Michigan is here to help with the painting. It’s a group of young people from a church that supports the Silseths, and they are some great workers. They just started on Monday and as of the end of today, they did some finish painting on [...]

It’s been a bit of a wild and woolly week so far. We lost electricity for about 12 hours the other day and night and for the better part of a week the power has been off and on like the lights in a room where a 3-year old just discovered the light switch. I [...]

We went to the Annual Conference of the Bay Island Baptist Churches yesterday. It actually started on Thursday, but we had various things that kept us away until Sunday morning. This year, they had what I think is the best speaker in years. Dr. Randy Von Kanel, a missionary pastor in the Cayman Islands, was [...]

Well pretty soon anyway. This is a quick update on Saturday before we begin the trek back to Roatan tomorrow. Yesterday was a big, big day. After 10 years of part time classes, full time work, and more than full time management of his cystic fibrosis, we finally got to see Jesse walk across the [...]

Our calendar is filling up! We’ve been having a great time reconnecting with our supporters here in the Tampa area. We’ve been touching base with someone nearly every day and sometimes more than one in a day. For example, this coming Sunday we will be at our home church, Candlewood Community, in the morning. In [...]

What a morning we had this past Sunday! Well, the whole week has been special, but Sunday’s BBI Day at Oakwood Community Church was just about as good as it gets. I’ve never been to a mission conference dedicated to one mission organization. I’ve usually been a little frustrated by most mission conferences both as [...]

If you are wondering why the blog has been so quiet lately, there is a simple answer. I’ve just been way too busy! With the usual work here, the unusual mini-emergencies, that are only unusual in type and not in frequency, working ahead on studio work for our upcoming furlough, and the actual planning for [...]

Thanksgiving is over now except for the turkey sandwiches and the rigors of losing all the weight I gained in one meal. When there are so many delicacies, even a sample of each is too much. And I took more than a sample of the turkey and stuffing! Remember that old Bugs Bunny cartoon where [...]
