2 blessings, and praying for a 3rd!

In 2006 we were blessed with a young lady, Bobbi Easton.  She had just finished high school and then she came to live with us here in the Philippines to teach our kids.  She ended up staying with us for 2 years.

While on home assignment in 2008, we began looking for our kids’ next school teacher.  Bobbi led us to her friend, Jessica Wease.  Jessica asked the Lord if she should help us by teaching our kids and He led her here.

We have been so blessed by both these young ladies.  Now Jessica is leaving us to return home so she can go to Bible College.  We are going to miss her very much.

So now we are seeking the Lord and asking you who can come help us for the 2010/11 school year.  We are looking for someone that has completed at least high school.  He or she may have just finished high school or be retired or somewhere in between.  Could it be YOU?  Could it be your SON or DAUGHTER?  Could it be your FRIEND or NEIGHBOUR?  Please pray with us.  We could really use the help.

Here are some pictures of Jessica in the different places she has had to teach the kids this year.

On 3 occasions we were able to stay in the tribe while house building was going on.  But school work still had to be done.  Even at the kitchen table!

This is at our NTM Guest House in Manila as we waited for baby Jenna to be born and now for our house to be ready to move into.

For this next school year we will be living in the tribe.  So Lord willing school will happen only in our house in the school room!!!

Send us an email if you or someone you know is interested in helping teach our kids.  chuck-shannon_talbot@ntm.org
