A dream I didn’t know I had

Project Canaan, and Eswatini, have captured my heart. I have known about Heart for Africa since John and Tracye McCarthy made their first visit to PC twelve years ago. Khutsala ornaments adorn my Christmas tree every year and I’ve made a few small gifts to support the organization. But after…

13th Birthday Fun!

“The older you get the faster time goes by.”

As a child, my Grandma Doris always told me, “The older you get the faster time goes by.”  I never felt this during grade school and high school; it seemed as if the summer lasted forever.  However, as I sit back and reflect on the past 7+ years serving at Project Canaan,…

It BIT me!

Ian and I have been back for three weeks now, and it has been so good to be home. We are very proud of our Project Canaan Leadership team and how they are leading the PC Department heads to start moving their departments from good to great. Last week we…

It has been God from the very beginning.
