At long last I am finally getting this post written. It will be sort of short and sweet. The time has come and we can make our long awaited announcement! (No, we are NOT having a baby.) We are officially on our way to Liberia. We have tickets for April 30. We will leave from Minneapolis and fly to Washington DC. From there we go to Brussels and finally on to Monrovia where we arrive in the evening on May 1. The reality that we are finally going has brought a whole jumble of emotions - excitement, trepidation, a little fear, being overwhelmed and relieved that it is finally happening.
To that end we have been doctoring, dentisting, chiropractoring, packing, sorting, shopping and shooting (yellow fever vaccines). And we thank and praise God for bringing us to this point in time. And now that it has arrived I will try to be more regular again in posting and keeping anyone who is interested up to date with what is happening.
Who am I?

- Monrovia, Liberia
- I live in Monrovia, Liberia, West Africa with my wife and youngest son. We are recently arrived in Liberia where we are serving as missionaries with Evangelical Church Missions working under the Liberia Evangelical Mission. For most of the last thirty years we have served under ECM in Bolivia, South America. We are the happy parents of four children and the proud grandparents of two grandchildren.
Wow! Terrific news, Gordon! We are praying and we know that God will work through you guys to touch lives with His love and grace.
