We Love Tonga

What are we doing in Tonga?

As Missionaries in Tonga since 2008 we have the joy of journeying through life with numerous people in various walks of life! Learn more about our current ministries in the posts below.

Bible Study

As a family we love to study the Bible. Psalm 119:130 says "The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple."   God graciously gives us the answers to all of our life's questions and purpose.  So we love sharing this passion with our friends, teaching them to study the Bible too.  God's word also gives us faith to believe Him and trust Him daily "So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ."- Romans 10:17

We host Bible study in our home and in our village church Hall on Tuesday nights and Wednesday nights.  Home Bible study is also a great way to connect with believers from different churches, to support and pray for each other, and build lasting friendships.

Mercy Ministry

A couple of years ago, while reading the Bible together in Matthew 25 we were cut to the heart with the realization that God wants us to be serving "the least of these".  So after more prayer and planning we found a way to incorporate into our schedule times to feed and visit the homeless, prisoners, and sick/disabled shut-ins....

 The Lord is so faithful to provide the time and resources.....this opportunity to "Visit Jesus" has been such a blessing to our family as our children always look forward to helping out as well. We are always looking for like minded people who are willing to volunteer time for this ministry! There are so many needs, and God's heart is that we serve the poor and hurting in our society. 


Osi and friends from his Bible study have continued mowing grass/home repair for widows on Mondays.  Its a great encouragement for him to see these young men growing in their faith throughout the year in Bible study, and THEN desiring to put their love for God into action by serving and sacrificial giving. 

This was our third year in a row having a BBQ on Christmas day with the street people at the Bus station.  And it warms our heart to see guys from the Bible study join us enthusiastically to cook and serve these precious people who have nowhere else to go on Christmas.








One of Jen's friends showed up his year too! 
We had a great time as a family with all the kids eating BBQ and riding bikes around the bus station.
