After two years in Scotland caring for Mum, we’re now preparing for the next chapter in our journey. These past years have been challenging but there have been many special moments too. We are thankful that Mum has, for the most part, settled into the care home which has given us the opportunity to consider what is next. As you can imagine making this decision hasn’t been easy but we believe it’s the right one for our family. So, what is next for us?
Simon and I have a heart to be back in a programme again but together. For the past two years Simon has been doing fly in and fly out to Africa, but we both don’t want to do this long term. After prayer and consultation with MAFI our plan is to move to Papua New Guinea in September 2025. Simon will be a programme/training pilot and I will continue my role in People Care.
Zara will also be leaving Scotland and will head back to Australia where she will pursue studies in veterinary nursing. This is not a huge surprise to us because of her love for animals. We will see where this leads her in the future as she also has a love for travel. Welcome to the world of third culture kids’s 😊. Joshua is set to complete his degree in digital design in 2025, and we couldn’t be prouder of all his hard work and creativity and managing life in Australia while we were in Scotland.
There’s a lot to do before our move to PNG—logistics, preparations, farewells, and stepping into the unknown once again. It’s both exciting and daunting, but we trust in God’s provision and timing. We would deeply appreciate your prayers as we transition into this new phase of life. Pray for clarity, strength, and peace as we tackle all that needs to be done.
Thank you for journeying with us through our years with MAFI. Your support and care are appreciated as we prepare for this next adventure.
