Corey Johnson – Palau: “God Cares”

It was December 24, 2017. Christmas Eve, the most wonderful time of the year! Our student missionary group was having a party with our Palauan sponsor families and it was a great experience. Around the holidays is typically when the SM feels homesick a little more, so it was really special. Later in the evening,…

38 Years Ago: Former Student Missionary to Thailand Reflects on Experience

It has been a whopping 38 years since I walked the streets of Haad Yai, Thailand as a Student Missionary. As anyone can imagine, a lot of life has taken place from that point on which has made the beautiful details fade. However, Thailand and its people are forever close to my heart. For years afterward…

Ana Copaceanu – Romania: “Normal”

Lately, it seems that many people are asking me how I feel about going home soon. I’ve been thinking a lot about how to answer that question and reflecting on this past year. When I first started preparing for this year, I was preparing myself for something new and challenging and that would take me…

Daria Hibbler – Colombia: “Colombia Tierra Querida”

My expectations were far off from what I thought I would be doing when I signed up to be a missionary. I wanted the hard faith-trying, living with limited necessities, back breaking mission trip. Instead God gave me the opposite. I have been completely enjoying my time here as a missionary. I mean yes, I…

Kathryn Schreiner – Papua Indonesia: “Far Away Nursing”

Nursing in the jungle is like nothing else. There is no Google searches or doctors just a phone call away.  There are no clean hospital beds that move at the touch of a button for the patients comfort. There is no PYXIS stocked full of the latest and greatest medications. In fact, we are grateful…

Jeremy Holt – Peru: “The Ultimate Chess Game”

After spending the morning working around AMOR, helping get stuff ready for our community health visits, getting things cleaned up from our dental campaign the day before, and collecting receipts and trying to track receipts for AMOR, I was quite tired. Then right as I was about to start my lunch, I found out that we…

Aida Coria – South Korea: “I’m Getting Paid. Am I a Missionary?”

Coming to Korea, technically under the label of “missionary” nonetheless to work while getting paid enough to pay back my student loans, i didn’t really know what to expect as a servant of God. Many “friends” on Facebook didn’t hold back from mentioning either, how I would only be considered a missionary once I was…

Michael Cropley – Austria: “A Refugee Crisis”

Hi everyone! I wanted to share with you a little about what’s going on here at Bogenhofen, Austria. As most of you know there is a huge refugee crisis going on where Syrians are fleeing their country and coming here to Europe for safety. Here at Bogenhofen we have been right in the center of…

Kimberly Ford – Palau: “Perfect Timing”

Many people think that being a missionary on an island is all “rainbows and butterflies” because it is paradise. It may be true that the scenery is breathtaking, but that doesn’t mean discouragement and struggles are nonexistent. One particular week I was feeling slightly more discouraged and homesick than previous weeks. Monday began and I…

Krista Bonney – Peru: “Dear Mum”

Dear Mum, I have arrived and am alive so far…But I’ll will admit to brushing my teeth with tap water and drinking fresco, a fruit drink that some church members made with unknown ingredients. I like living on the edge of new experiences and certain digestive doom. Not to be dramatic…I’m crossing my fingers and…
