Updates from Tenwyk I was finally able to post a blog tonight. It has been quite busy with some late nights! Here’s an intro: Wednesday, February 16 – Otolaryngology and Neurosurgery have been intersecting this trip! Aaron and I were able to work together this week on a combined urgent case. Young 18 year old with a brain abscess secondary to a chronic ear infection. We worked long and hard but praise God she is doing well.

Dear Family and Friends, All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out. {John 6:37} Thank you all for praying for Ethiopia and me over the last couple months.

We did eventually buy some tests to do in the clinic, but those were used within 2-3 days. We certainly knew that there were...

Growing and Learning Chase Miller writes, “We are preparing to leave for Tenwek Hospital in Bomet, Kenya. Jimmy, Aaron and I will be traveling to Kenya together. Jimmy will have a 10 day trip to focus on water filter distribution in schools and churches. I will have the joy of working alongside my son Aaron as he serves with the Neurosurgery team for the month. I anticipate a busy trip overall as COVID restrictions have prevented many short-term missionaries from traveling. God has been blessing the hearing aid ministry so I plan to fit 30 hearing aids. I will be training a general...
