40th Anniversary / Mission to Indonesia

by James Glynn on 21. Oct, 2011 in Glynn Family, Mission to Java

I gave Margie a choice. We could celebrate our 40th anniversary with an Alaska cruise (something she‘s mentioned) or she could come to Indonesia with me (I’ve gone there alone twelve times since 1991) and we could combine special times alone with ministry on Java. She chose Indonesia.
Little did I know at the time that [...]

A Different Kind of Mission

by James Glynn on 05. May, 2011 in Mission to Java

Things are changing. OK things aren’t changing; it’s me that’s changing. My rating system for what is most and least important on a mission trip is turning upside down.

Update from Indonesia

by James Glynn on 16. May, 2010 in Mission to Java

I preached this morning at the church where I led a cell group last night. The group last night was about 50 people, and the church this morning maybe 300.
