What We've Been Up To



Here is a good portion of our mission family on our last week in Bolivia.

I'm sorry to say, this probably won't be a very exciting blog, but we did want to inform those of you who might look here for information about what we are up to these days since coming home from South America. Well, it took us about two weeks to catch up with all the family, which was nice. Of course, there's been some adjustments, a big one was saying goodbye to a large group of friends and coworkers and feeling a little bit lonely these first few weeks. We are trying our best to make the transition from volunteer work to full-time employment. Staying in Montana is high on our wish-list, but makes for very few openings in Mike's field of graphic design. We welcome your prayers for our future, to have wisdom and courage to follow where God leads. There are two opportunities for Mike that we are waiting on, and while we wait we are blessed to be able to live rent-free with Mike's mom in Billings. It is hard to put into words what this past year has meant to us. Although we can't share every memory or experience with you directly, we certainly have many of you to thank for your direct impact on our lives and many lives in Bolivia as well. We always love to hear about your lives, so drop us an e-mail or comment.

Hey! Hope things are going well for you both. We'll be praying that you find a job here in Big Sky country!

Mike & Aileen,

I just now stumbled across your blog -- which is a bummer because I could have been checking it while you were in Bolivia. Hopefully you'll still keep it updated!

Andrea might have informed you, but we're heading to Australia in January for Jonathan's four-month clinical internship. It should be an adventure.

It may automatically give you my blogger address, but just in case it doesn't, check out our blog. It's jonathanandamyhook.blogspot.com

I just added a few pics of our Thanksgiving w/ Andrea too...

You guys will certainly be in our prayers. We know all about intense transitions!!!
