This is the blog for Gavin and Carrie Jones and family. We live in Papua New Guinea and are working to see lives transformed by the living Word of God through Bible translation. Gavin is a helicopter pilot. Carrie, who has her degree in Public Health, works in the lab at our busy rural clinic. Our son, Isaac, was born in 2004 and our quintuplets, Will, David, Marcie, Seth, and Grace, were born in 2012.

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. The you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all you heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight. -Proverbs 3:3-6

Latest family pictures

Sadly, Marmi and Papa have headed back to California. Happily, we got some good family pictures with them before they left!

We love you, Marmi and Papa! THANK YOU for all your help and love and care and FUN!
L to R: The two Marcies, Gracie, David with Isaac, Will and Seth. The kids were not in a smiling mood. We're glad we got even the pictures we did.
The weather was changing and stormy just before the photo shoot - I wonder if that affects them?

L to R: Seth, Grace, David on Isaac's lap, the two Marcie's, and Will.
Gracie had been crying, poor baby. She's been really clingy lately.

Don't you love David's mischievous face?? It's quite frequently lit by a "I'm gonna be naughty but cute!"grin. :) 

The two Marcies!

    2. No formal note is needed, just seeing the pictures and hearing the up dates, are more than enough...I am glad to see the orange outfits of the boy's still fit:)
