MANILA, PHILIPPINES

When Jean and I first arrived in Manila we had no idea of what the next years would bring.

My assignment was to serve as business administrator and government liaison representative for the mission.

Senior missionary Derrick Hillary met our plane and said, "Start now. Walk your family through immigration and customs." No small challenge.

It was a bit like throwing a child into the water so it will learn to swim.

We made it.

Many times Jean and I have prayed, "Lord, please let us be missionaries all of our lives."

We still do.
