I’m posting this early because I won’t be at home tomorrow to do it. We’ve been having a great time with Ken and Karen Anderson. They’ve been both a help and a blessing. Ken and I are planning to leave early tomorrow morning for a trip to Utila. It turns out that, if all goes [...]

I just discovered that much of this post had disappeared. I have no idea how it happened, but here it is as well as I can recall. I usually write these on a word processor and save the file, but this was so short I didn’t bother. Wouldn’t you know it would be the first [...]

As you know, if you know anything about me, I like to make stuff. It’s even more fun when it’s my own invention. And you know I’ve been making a lot of stuff here lately and so has Frederick. But what I don’t like is the tedium of tidying up after a job. That, combined [...]

Here is the latest audio update. Something we did not talk about on the update was some sad news Mildred and I learned Sunday morning. Pastor Bush down in West End told us that the man who had been replacing the tiles on the floor of their church was shot and killed Saturday night. He [...]

When we were up in Tampa a few weeks ago, the office wanted to add Mildred as a signer on a special bank account for the radio station. So right there in her office, our accountant had Mildred sign the form. It took only a couple of minutes, but of course it also has to [...]

It was a little difficult to think of a title for this weekend’s blog. The most notable thing about the week is that nothing really notable happened. In that regard, I suppose you could call it a normal week. But if it’s practically the first one we’ve ever had, how can it be normal? No [...]

We had quite an afternoon yesterday. At least a thousand people showed up here in front of the radio station to start off a peace march sponsored by the municipality and some churches. I really have no way to judge with any accuracy how many there were, because there were too many for me to [...]

Before I get started, I want to just take a moment to thank those of you who follow our adventure in serving Christ here on the Gazette. We appreciate your prayers. While on vacation, I talked with someone who said he hadn’t had much opportunity to view our pictures since he had to click on [...]

What is Semana Santa? That’s Spanish for Holy Week. It’s when almost every business closes, phones don’t get fixed (But to be fair, they haven’t worked for several weeks, so maybe we can’t blame that on Semana Santa.), and seemingly most of Central America comes to Roatán and clogs the streets and beaches and jams [...]

It’s April already! Wow! We need to get this new transmitter site in operation pretty soon. At the end of this month, we will be losing the services of Frederick Henderson as he and his family prepare to move to Switzerland. So we are facing a pretty hard deadline. The good news is that we [...]

After getting the tower up on Monday we were all rejoicing. It was really energizing. But we were still facing the formidable task of putting up the antennas and connecting them to the transmission cable. So, Tuesday we made plans and installed some preparatory rigging so we would be ready on Wednesday to start lifting [...]

The Tour De France is one of the most grueling bicycle races in the world. The riders cover over 2,000 miles, much of which passes through some of France’s most challenging mountain roads. They eat and drink on their bikes and deal with extremes of heat and cold. The riders train by riding tens of [...]
